FAQs: Hyundai Keys And Locks
Can you make a Hyundai key without the original?
Yes. We can cut and program a new Hyundai key from your vehicle’s locks and immobiliser data. Depending on the model, we use OBD2 programming or advanced EEPROM/immobiliser techniques. Proof of ownership is required.
My Hyundai says “key not detected.” What should I do?
First, try a known-good fob battery and hold the fob close to the start button. If it still won’t start, there may be an immobiliser sync or antenna issue. We can diagnose and perform Hyundai smart key programming on site.
Do you offer non-destructive vehicle entry for Hyundai?
Yes, wherever possible. We use professional lock-picking and decoding tools designed for Hyundai locks. If a lock is severely damaged already and drilling is the only safe option, we’ll explain why and get your approval first.
How long does Hyundai key replacement take?
Most replacements are completed in one visit, often within an hour on site once we arrive, depending on model, key type, and whether immobiliser programming or EEPROM is needed.
Is this cheaper and faster than a Hyundai dealer?
Typically yes. Our mobile service avoids towing and long wait times. We can often provide same-day assistance. For cost considerations, visit our page on auto locksmith prices in Guildford.
Do you provide a warranty on Hyundai keys?
Yes. Our keys and workmanship are covered by warranty. We also test all functions—locking, unlocking, starting, and boot release—before we leave.
