- You show the car is yours before any work starts — ask on the call what to have ready.
- The transponder key is cut and matched to the car at your location.
- The new key is tested — locking, unlocking and starting the car.
- The tested key is handed to you at the car.
Transponder keys explained
A transponder key is a key with a chip inside that talks to the car. The car reads the chip, and if it recognises it, the car starts. Many modern car keys carry a chip like this, and older keys may not. The chip must be matched to the car — that matching is the programming, and it is done at the car, by the locksmith. No method is set out on this page.

Whether a transponder key can be made for your car turns on the make and model — no make or model is promised here. Tell us what car it is when you call 07367 634032, and we will say what we can do for the car.
