We cut and program car keys at your car, and we sort the locks at homes in Fairview
Fairview sits out on the western side, close enough to Kabega and Westering that most people here do their week within a short drive of home. Cars spend the night on driveways, and that is where nearly all our calls start.
The most common one is simple. You go out in the morning, press the remote, and nothing happens. The car is fine, the key is in your hand, and you still cannot get in.
We work as a mobile locksmith, so the job happens where you are. Your driveway, the kerb outside, or wherever the car has stopped. 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 in the van while you wait.
Being this side of town, a tow costs real money before anybody has even looked at the key. Coming to you removes that entirely, and the drive out is on us either way.
House locks are the other half of what we do here. Front, back, garage and gate usually means a handful of keys nobody can keep track of. We can key several alike so one key runs the lot, and we change locks when somebody moves in.
If a car in your household has one key and no spare, book that before something goes wrong. A spare car key costs a fraction of an emergency call out.
Where we get called out in Fairview
Driveways early in the morning give us the bulk of it. Flat remotes, cars that will not open, and somebody already running late.
The Cape Road side brings the roadside calls, usually keys shut in the boot while loading up.
Second cars give us a steady run. The older one in the household that has never had a spare cut.
Then the doors and gates. Lock changes after a move, and keys worn thin enough to snap.

FAQS
How quickly can you get to Fairview?
About twenty minutes from our Seaview Road base in normal traffic, and the drive is on us.
The remote will not open the car even though I have the key. Why?
Usually a flat remote battery. That is often a quick fix, and we can tell you on the phone whether it sounds like one.
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.
Do you charge extra to come out this side of town?
No. You get one price for the job before we leave and that is what you pay when we arrive.
The second car only has one key. Should I get a spare?
Yes. A spare cut while the original still works costs a fraction of an emergency call out later.
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 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.
