We quote before we drive out, and that number does not change
We cut, code and replace car keys at your car, and we sort the locks and gates at homes in Lovemore Park
Lovemore Park runs to larger properties, longer driveways and newer cars than most parts of the city. That changes the sort of work we do out here. Fewer old barrel locks, more electronics.
Smart keys and proximity keys are the main one. A car that starts with a button and unlocks as you walk up to it is lovely right until the key stops talking to it. When that happens there is no keyhole to fall back on, and the car simply will not go anywhere.
We handle those at the vehicle. The coding equipment travels in the van, so a proximity key gets paired where your car is standing rather than at a dealership on the other side of town with a two week wait.
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.
Getting a car out of Lovemore Park and into a workshop is an expensive exercise, and it is the reason most people here call a mobile locksmith rather than arranging a tow. The drive out is on us either way.
Houses out here usually have more doors than most. Front, back, garage, cottage and a gate at the end of the drive. That means a ring of keys nobody can keep track of, and often a gate remote that has been playing up for months. We change locks, key several doors alike so one key runs the lot, and sort out what we can on the gate side.
If a car in your household has one key and no spare, book that before anything happens. On newer cars a spare car key costs a fraction of what a full lost key job runs to.
Where we get called out in Lovemore Park
Driveways account for almost all of it. Long drives, cars parked well back from the road, and remotes that give up somewhere between the house and the gate.
Smart key faults are the most common single job here. The car does not recognise the key, the start button does nothing, and there is no obvious way in.
Second cars give us the rest. The bakkie that only comes out at weekends, or the car the kids drive, usually with one key and no spare anywhere.
Then the doors and gates. Lock changes after a move, and gate remotes that have worn out from years of daily use.
Why people out here call us first
Lovemore Park is about twenty five minutes from our Seaview Road base. Further than most, and the drive is still on us.
You hear the price before we leave and it does not change when we arrive. On newer cars that matters, because the range between a simple job and a complicated one is wide.
We handle smart and proximity keys, not just older blades. Tell us the make, model and year on WhatsApp and we will confirm before we drive out rather than after.
You deal with the same small team every time. We are a Gqeberha business with a verified Google listing and a stack of reviews behind us.

FAQS
My car has a push start and the key is not recognised. Can you help?
Yes. Proximity and smart keys are our most common job in this area. We pair a new one at your car rather than sending you to a dealership.
How long does it take you to get out here?
About twenty five minutes from our Seaview Road base. Further than most areas, and the drive is still on us.
Do I have to use the dealership for a newer car?
No. We program keys for most modern makes at the vehicle, usually a lot faster and without the car leaving your driveway.
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.
Can one key open the front, back and cottage?
Yes. Bigger houses out here usually mean more doors than anybody wants keys for. We can key several alike so one key runs the lot.
Should I get a spare for a newer car?
Yes, and more so than on an older car. On modern vehicles a spare cut now costs a fraction of a full lost key job later.
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 heavily on the make, the model and the year on newer cars. Send us those three details and we will give you the price before we drive out.
