Excellent service! Dan was very knowledgeable on what was wrong with my key card and offered some solutions to see if my own key card would work other ways whilst I gathered some money together to have it properly fixed. He came out and had a new key card programmed for me within 15mins. Very happy customer. Would recommend 👌

Thank you so much to the lad who came out all the way from Manchester to Stoke-on-Trent to help with my Golf. My steering lock kept engaging when I turned my steering wheel which left me stuck. I searched mobile key replacement and this company popped up first, was worried about companies ripping me off but this gave a price over the phone and were completely honest and there eta was accurate. They managed to fix my issue without replacing the ignition barrel. Thank you very much for helping me out. Nice and friendly. Would reccomend this company if you ever have key or barrel issues.

What The Service Covers

All key types are covered: transponder keys, smart keys, keyless entry fobs, and traditional metal keys. The technician carries the equipment to handle all of them from the van. Lost every copy? That is not a problem. A new key can be cut and coded to your vehicle without an original to copy from, using your chassis number and vehicle data.

Every major manufacturer is covered, including Ford, Volkswagen, Mercedes and Land Rover, as well as most others on UK roads. If you only need a spare rather than a full car key replacement, that can be done at the same visit.

Lost Every Key? That's Our Most Common Job

Losing every key is the job we’re called out for most, and it doesn’t need the dealer. We cut and code a brand new key from your vehicle’s details, at the roadside, on your drive or in the car park where you’re stuck. Most are done within the hour, and the old key is wiped from the car so nobody else can use it.

If you’ve still got the key but the car has stopped responding to it, it may just be the battery. Our guide on what to do when your keyless car fob battery is dead shows you how to check.

Prices start from £49 and you get a fixed price before we set off. There’s no call out charge on jobs booked between 8am and 6pm.

Why Car Key Masters Over a Dealership

Dealerships charge more for car key replacement in Manchester than a mobile specialist. There is no getting around it. Their rates are higher, the wait is longer, and most people have to pay for recovery on top.

Car Key Masters are priced to undercut main dealer rates on every job. With 25 years of experience across all makes and models, fully insured technicians, and a five-star rating on both Google and Trustpilot, the service record backs up the price. Every job comes with a 12-month warranty as standard.

We compare the two in more detail in auto locksmith or dealership, which should you choose.
