Car Key Replacement

Lost your only key or snapped it in the lock? We make a brand-new working car key — cut and programmed where you're standing, anywhere on the Garden Route.

A replacement key that actually starts the car

Replacing a car key is more than cutting a blade. On any vehicle with an immobiliser, the key carries a chip that has to be coded to your car before the engine will start. We do both: cut the key to your locks and program it to the immobiliser, so you drive away — not just unlock the door.

We come to you across George, Mossel Bay, Hartenbos and the wider Garden Route, so there's no tow and no dealership wait.

Lost keys, broken keys, worn keys

  • Lost car keys — even if you've lost every key, our all-keys-lost service generates a new one from the vehicle.
  • Broken keys — snapped in the ignition or door? We extract the piece and remake the key.
  • Worn keys — a key too worn to turn is cut fresh to code.
  • Spare keys — cut a backup while you still have a working one.

Whether it's a plain key, a transponder chip key, a remote or a keyless smart key, we replace and code it to your car.

What we need from you

To make a key for a vehicle we'll confirm it's yours — your ID together with the registration papers or a current licence disc. Once that's done, the job is quick.

Give us the make, model and year and we'll tell you the price and what's involved before we travel. Driving a popular model? Jump straight to your make — Toyota, Volkswagen, Ford and more.

Frequently asked

Can you really make a key with no original?

Yes — that's an all-keys-lost job and we do them regularly. We generate the key from the vehicle, cut it and program it to start the car.

Will the new key work with my remote locking?

If your car uses a combined remote key, we replace it as a unit and sync the remote functions. Plain metal keys are cut and coded without remote functions.

How fast can you come out?

We aim to reach you the same day across the Garden Route. Send your location and we'll give you a realistic time.

Is it cheaper than the dealership?

In most cases yes, and usually faster, because we cut and code on-site instead of ordering the key in.
