Find out moreAlmost every car since the late 1990s has a chip in the key that the car must recognise before the engine will start. A key that's only been cut will open the doors but won't start the car — it has to be programmed to it.
We programme new and replacement keys, keyless and push-to-start fobs, and remote lock and unlock buttons at the car, using dealer-level equipment carried in the van. We can also remove lost or stolen keys from the car's memory so they no longer work.
If your remote has stopped working, it may just need a new battery or re-pairing rather than a new key — ask us on the phone and we'll tell you honestly.

Yes, for almost every car on Irish roads. We cut a new key to fit your locks, programme it so the car starts, and remove the lost key from the car's memory so it can't be used by whoever finds it. It's done at the car, so there's no tow to a dealer.
Usually, yes — and it's faster. A dealer typically needs the car brought in and may order the key from abroad, which can take a week or more. We carry key blanks and programming equipment in the van and do the job on the spot.
Yes. We supply and programme keyless and push-to-start (smart) keys as well as standard, flip and older bladed keys, for all the main makes sold in Ireland — Ford, VW, Toyota, Nissan, Skoda, Hyundai, Kia, BMW, Audi, Mercedes and more.
Proof that the car is yours — the logbook (vehicle registration certificate) or insurance documents with photo ID. We check this on every job so a key is never made for the wrong person.
