How Our Mobile Service Works
We bring dealer-level capability to your doorstep across Maresfield and the TN22 area:
- Assessment and ID check
- We confirm vehicle ownership and identify the lock/immobiliser system by VIN and diagnostics.
- Non-destructive entry wherever possible
- Using lock decoders, air wedges, and specialist picks, we open vehicles without damage in the vast majority of cases. On rare occasions where drilling a lock or removing trim is the only safe option (e.g., severe lock failure), we’ll explain the risks and costs first and get your permission.

- We cut keys to code or decode your lock if no key exists. Programming is performed using OBD2 tools, EEPROM techniques for specific models, and ECU/immobiliser programming when required.
- Test and handover
- We verify remote locking, transponder start, and any smart entry features. You’ll leave with a working key, and our workmanship/key components are covered by warranty.
We work with modern immobiliser systems across 2024/2025 models and older vehicles alike, using dealer-level diagnostics for brands such as Ford, VW, Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Vauxhall, Toyota, Nissan, Kia, Hyundai, Renault, Peugeot, Land Rover, Mini, Skoda, Volvo, and more.
