Polite, efficient, excellent service.
Graham Roberts
More than very good - excellent service. Particularly helpful organising the visit to a different location. Extremely flexible. Commendations go to Victoria in the office who put up with all my questions and requirements. The key is so like a BMW key that I asked the technician if he could make it slightly different so we could tell them apart! Not a problem as there was a choice of black and silver side pieces, and a choice of logos, but we stuck to the BMW one. Ten out of ten!
Mr William Speirs
Fast and friendly,no issues.

Fantastic! I phoned this morning about my broken remote key fob and within 2.5 hours, a very polite young man had arrived to help me. Not only did he provide me with a replacement remote fob and key, he also managed to repair the old one so that I have a spare! Other people have said this service is expensive, but it was a lot cheaper (and a lot quicker) than the Renault Garage, who were quoting me £250 and 2 visits to the Garage over 10 days!! I couldn't be happier with Car Key Solutions' service :)
Russell Jones
After digesting the cost and biting the bullet it turned out the mobile engineer was able to cut and program a new key AND provide a remote control for not much more. Exactly what we wanted and totally painless!
Annette
Amazing , super fast service 😁
MS Rachel
Excellent service today. I was in a panicked situation, locked out of my car and far from home. Fantastic service from phone to when the technician arrived. Would totally recommend.

I chose to phone Car key solutions mainly because of the extremely high review ratings they seemed to have when I found their website through google search. I was so pleased that although the site did suggest dealing with requests in London and within the M25 they were perfectly prepared to send a locksmith all the way from Finchley to my home which is as far out as Aylesbury. It was important that I had my car key issue dealt with asap and was able to make a booking which was available for the day after I called even though it meant the visit would be on a Sunday. Everything was carried out extremely quickly and efficiently. Also there were no extra charges above the quote provided The only downside being that whilst I was promised a 1/2 an hour window which was particularly convenient for me because I needed to make other plans for that day after the visit of the locksmith He did arrive later than scheduled. However, I did receive a courtesy call from car key solutions to explain the delay and was given a new expected timing which was upheld. As everything else went so well I don't think I need to reduce the review I am prepared to provide by a complete star from five to four

Superb service - I'm so pleased with the professionalism and friendly way in which our stressful situation was dealt with. No hard sell at all- just great efficient service at a reasonable cost.highly recommend!

Price is a bit expensive compared to other quotes, esp. as the job was complete in just over an hour. However, the speed of the job was down to the skill, experience and specialist equipment of the technician. He seemed to know exactly what he was doing every step, no hesitation at any stage, which gave me the confidence my car was in safe hands for this complicated job. I was also satisfied the replacement part was genuine from Mercedes, unless they have gone to great lengths to fool me, which I doubt. Overall, an expensive but thoroughly professional job. I just hope the part does not fail any time soon, although OSG give a 12month guarantee which does help.

I has CKS come out to my home to cut and programme 2 keys,one for my vehicle and one for the wife's. I received a phone call to tell me the guy was on his way to me. A short time after i had another call to say he is 1 minute away then another call to say he is outside my home. When the key cutter knocked on my door is was very polite and professional. I gave him my original key and also the wifes original key . And within 45minutes the guy had done both keys. I went outside and checked both keys worked ,and they were spot on. I cannot rate this company high enough. If you want/need a key cut for you vehicle,then look no further than here. Thank you Car Key Solutions

Engineer arrived when expected. Although he could not fix my ignition cylinder he was able to replace it on the spot, so problem was fixed the same day I called the office and booked the job. Everyone very polite and professional.
Steven
Thank you so much. Chris was amazingly helpful. Because it was an old car he had to adjust the key on several occasions. Didn’t leave until everything was working. Can’t praise the service highly enough after all the stress of loosing my key in the first place. Thank you all and especially Chris.
Dane
Really quick arrival to my property and because i already had part of the key they were able to fix only part which saved me a considerable amount. Client service was great!
Ms. Stefani
Sebastian was courteous and professional. Great service.
Martin Burrows
The car key replacement service was excellent and exactly what we needed. My only caveat would be, being bombarded by a relentless video of scantily clad young women in bikinis pouting and posing in old fashioned "glamour" poses to a soundtrack of mundane lift music. Just as well my wife and daughters were not with me. They would have been angry at being subjected in public to such old-fashioned and sexist exploitation of women - and you are letting your service down with such a display. Such material is at least 30 or 40 years out of date.

The engineer was personable and helpful and although the problem turned out to be with the battery and not the key, he sorted the matter quickly and efficiently.

Absolutely fantastic service the gold standard on professionalism and genuine reliable service. I was kept informed the technician was a a true pro and very informed. I was given a new key, reprogrammed and every function tested and explained. I was emailed a receipt on the spot. This company is run by professionals. I will recommend you guys to anyone who needs this service. I am sure some people are possibly slightly cheaper but I doubt you will get the same level of professionalism

Stay Safe!

If you’re reading this page, then you may already be in the unfortunate position where your vehicle keys have been stolen, lost, or because your vehicle locking barrel has malfunctioned.

We can help you fast, ensuring we have your vehicle protection and full functionality restored. In most cases, we can get to you within hours with our advanced auto locksmith services.

In case your car keys have been lost or stolen we strongly recommend you change or re-code your vehicle’s lock units and disable any old keys. This will help to prevent any unauthorised access including both opening and starting the vehicle.

Comprehensive Service

We provide a comprehensive auto locksmith service that will change and de-program any vehicle keys. This process includes:

  • Erasure of immobiliser transponders from the vehicle ‘memory’ – these transponders are fitted in keys and enable the starting of the engine. This way, lost or stolen keys will no longer be accepted by the vehicle’s immobiliser.
  • De-synchronisation of the key fob’s remote control that locks and unlocks the vehicle at the press of a button. Any lost or stolen key fob remotes will no longer be recognised by the vehicle.
  • Replacement and / or re-coding of the ignition barrel (where present), tailgate barrel and glove box barrel – rendering old keys or other means of access as useless.
  • Cutting and programming of two new keys for your vehicle.

Did you know?

In recent years, many vehicle manufacturers have used plastic keys with no apparent blade.
However, every car will actually have an emergency blade hidden inside the plastic key which can operate a barrel fitted inside the covered door handle in case the remote central locking stops working (for reasons such as a flat battery).

Did you check?

Recently, we noticed more insurance companies are offering car key cover as part of insurance policies or as a separate insurance car key policy covering unfortunate situations where car keys have been lost or stolen. Insurers may also cover full lock set replacement or re-coding, giving you peace of mind that any lost or stolen car keys will not operate your car door locks, central locking remote and immobiliser systems.

Check your insurance policy for a detailed breakdown of policy coverage – and if you’re covered, you’ll be able to claim back the cost of your car key replacement and car key lock replacement.

How long does it take?

We can usually handle most jobs with our mobile service in a single visit, and we can usually get to you within hours. If we’re unable to help you with our mobile service, we can arrange for a recovery truck to collect your vehicle and bring is to our secure premises in Finchley Central.

Car Keys Solutions auto locksmiths will contact your insurer or provide you with a direct price estimate for a full car lock set replacement, or to re-code your existing keys.

We can also improve your car immobiliser system, please speak with our advisers for more information.
