About Our Replacement Car Key Service
Our Car Key Replacement Service is not a 24 hour mobile emergency call out service. We offer a range of appointments at our Mill Road shop between 8.30am and 3.30pm Monday to Friday. The car key programming service is not a while you wait service, we need the car with us so we can complete all of the task that are specific to your car and fully test the replacement, typically the work is completed within an hour.
We are not a Mobile service, We can only supply extra keys if you have a working key and can drive the vehicle to our shop, unfortunately we cannot make new keys if all keys are lost.
Remote Car Keys and Programming
Many newer car keys also have a transponder chip that controls the cars immobiliser. Cars and vans registered from 1995 may have this system and this means that replacement keys need to be added to the vehicles key list, this process is referred to as programming, it requires specialist equipment and requires the vehicle to be present.
Halls offer a full service solution, our state of the art programming systems are able to reproduce fully working keys for cars and vans that work as reliably as the main dealer equivalent. Before we can create a replacement key we need to gather as much information about the vehicle as possible so we can be sure we provide the correct blade, transponder chip and remote control.
How Can I Order A New Key
Please try to give as much information as possible, if you any questions regarding the details required on the form please contact us on 01223 416000 before you complete the form. We require as much information as you can provide about your vehicle, this helps us to determine the exact model, model of key and transponder. Experience tells us that asking for all of this information helps us to provide an accurate quote and and enabled us to provide a working key and remote transponder. Many manufacturers have ‘cross over’ periods where an ‘older’ and ‘newer’ model exist in the same year, so providing the information is essential to determine which model you have.
The car key and programming service is not a while you wait service, an appointment will be booked and you will need to leave your car with us for up to 2 hours. Once we have created the new car key and programmed the transponder we need to fully test that they are functional, we will contact you as soon as the keys are ready.
