Emergency replacement keys (car and van)

If you’ve lost your keys or the key has failed, we can often supply a replacement key solution (vehicle dependent), including programming when required.

Proof of Ownership and Security Checks

Key replacement is security‑sensitive work — and it should be. Before we can cut, supply, or programme a key, we’ll ask for proof you’re the legitimate owner/keeper of the vehicle.

Typically, that means:

Photo ID (e.g., driving licence)

proof of ownership/authorisation where possible

your vehicle make, model and approximate year

your location/postcode in Leicester

locked out / lost keys / broken key / keyless issue
