Our Car Locksmith Services in Yateley
Car Key Replacement
Lost your only key? We can generate a new one even without the original. Using dealer-level diagnostics and your vehicle’s immobiliser data, we create fully functional keys for all makes and models—including transponder keys, remote fobs, and smart proximity keys.
Car Key Programming
Modern vehicles require precise programming to recognise new keys. Our technicians use advanced OBD2 and EEPROM programming equipment to synchronise transponders, remotes, and smart keys with your car’s ECU and immobiliser system.
Vehicle Unlocking
Locked out in Yateley? We employ non-destructive entry techniques to open your car without damaging locks, windows, or paintwork. This applies to standard doors, boots, and even when keys are locked inside with the engine running.
Car Key Cutting & Duplication
Need a spare? We cut keys to precise manufacturer specifications using laser-cutting and high-security key machines. All duplicates are tested thoroughly before we leave.
Van & Commercial Locksmith
Yateley has many small businesses relying on vans and commercial vehicles. We provide key replacement, lock repairs, and security upgrades for Ford Transit, Mercedes Sprinter, VW Transporter, and other popular commercial models.
