Car and hire car lockouts
Most cars, utes, 4WDs and hire cars open with no damage to the paint, door or lock. Give us the make, model and year when you call and we’ll bring the right tools. For house and unit lockouts, see our emergency page.
Replacement car keys
Lost every key? The car doesn’t need to be towed to a dealer. A mobile car locksmith can usually cut a new key to the lock and program it to the car on site. Modern keys and remotes carry a chip that the immobiliser has to recognise, so programming is part of the job.
Spares and remotes
Running on one key is risky. A spare cut and programmed now is a fraction of the cost of an all-keys-lost job later. We also replace worn remote shells, buttons and batteries.
Worn keys and ignitions
A key that’s bent, cracked or hard to turn is worth replacing before it breaks off in the ignition. We cut a new key from your old one, remove broken keys from doors and ignitions, and repair or replace worn barrels.
Caravans, campers and trailers
Caravan doors, storage hatches and trailer locks wear out and get lost on the road. We open, rekey and replace caravan and camper locks, and key trailer and hitch locks alike.
What affects the price
The type of key (plain cut, transponder, remote or smart key), whether you still have a working key, the make, and the time of day. All-keys-lost costs more than copying a key you already have. You get a price on the phone first.
What to have ready
Make, model and year, plus the rego.
Proof of ownership: licence and registration papers, or the hire agreement for a hire car.
Where the car is, with a landmark if it’s in a big car park or at a beach access.
Car Locksmith FAQs
Can you help with a hire car?
Yes, for lockouts. For a lost hire car key, call the hire company first; most have their own process and may need to approve a replacement.
Can you program a key without the original?
For most makes, yes. The new key is cut to the lock and programmed to the car. Proof of ownership is needed first.
How long does a replacement car key take?
Most are done on site in under an hour once we arrive, depending on the make and key type.
