Why Broken Car Key Repairs Matter

  • Save on Costly Replacements
    Often, a damaged key can be salvaged without having to purchase a brand-new one. Our professional repair approach reduces expenses and keeps your key compatible with your vehicle’s locks or transponder system.

  • Avoid Lockouts
    A cracked or partially broken key can fail when you least expect it. Prompt repairs can prevent unexpected vehicle lockouts and keep you from being stranded.

  • Maintain Vehicle Security
    Dealing with a broken key early helps ensure your car’s locks and ignition remain secure. Our repairs preserve the integrity of your lock and ignition systems, keeping thieves or vandals at bay.

Comprehensive Broken Key Repair Services

1. Key Extraction & Reassembly

If your key snaps inside the door lock or ignition cylinder, our locksmiths use non-destructive extraction tools to remove the broken piece. We then assess whether the key can be reassembled or if a new key is needed.

2. Key Cutting & Duplication

For keys that are too damaged to repair, we offer precise onsite key cutting and duplication. This service ensures you leave with a perfectly shaped key that fits your locks, minimising future issues.

3. Transponder & Remote Repairs

Modern car keys often contain electronic components like transponders or key fob circuits. Our technicians can replace or repair these elements so your car recognises the key and unlocks or starts smoothly.

4. Emergency 24/7 Support
