We cut and program car keys at your car, and we sort the locks at homes in Broadwood
Broadwood is a small, quiet pocket on the western side, the sort of suburb where people know their neighbours and cars sit on driveways overnight without anybody thinking twice about it.
Nearly all our work here starts on one of those driveways. A remote gives up in the cold, a key goes missing somewhere in the house, or a boot gets closed with the keys already inside.
We work as a mobile locksmith, so the job happens where the car is standing. The cutting machine and the programming equipment travel in the van, so it gets finished in one visit.
Losing every key you own is still a same visit job. Lost car key replacement means we read the code off your car, cut a fresh key on the spot and program it so the engine starts. Chip keys get coded to the immobiliser through our transponder programming, done while you wait.
Smaller suburbs like this one tend to have older second cars sitting around, and those are almost always running on a single key that has never been copied. It works right up until the day it does not.
House locks are the other half. Front, back, garage and gate, usually with more keys than anybody wants to carry. We can key several alike so one key runs the lot, and we change locks when somebody moves in.
A spare car key cut while the original still works costs a fraction of an emergency call out later.
Where we get called out in Broadwood
Driveways account for nearly all of it. Flat remotes, cars that will not open, and mornings that stop before they have started.
Second cars give us a steady run. Older vehicles that have run on one key for years without a spare.
The Cape Road side brings the roadside calls, mostly keys shut in the car while somebody stopped briefly.
Then the doors. Lock changes after a move, and keys worn thin enough to snap in the barrel.

FAQS
How quickly can you get to Broadwood?
About twenty minutes from our Seaview Road base in normal traffic, and the drive is on us.
The older car has never had a spare key. Should I get one?
Yes. It costs a fraction of an emergency call out, and older cars are exactly where the only key tends to fail.
I have lost every key to my car. Can you still help?
Yes. We read the code off your car, cut a new key on the spot and program it so the engine starts.
My remote stopped working overnight. Is that expensive?
Often not. Sometimes it is just the battery. Tell us the make, model and year and we will give you an idea before we drive out.
Can you change the locks on my house?
Yes, and we can key several doors alike so one key runs the front, the back and the gate.
Do I need to get my car towed to you?
No. The cutting machine and the programming equipment travel with us, so the work happens wherever your car is standing.
Do you come out at night?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including public holidays.
What does a new car key cost?
It depends on the make, the model and the year. Send us those three details and we will give you the price before we drive out.
