Proximity and remote-key programming
Compatible smart keys are registered with the immobiliser and tested for hands-free entry, remote locking and starting.
Key programming service
Specialist mobile car key programming and lockout assistance around Chilworth village, Southampton Science Park and the SO16 area.
Not A National Company
A local business, not a call centre.
Real Local Professionals
Locals, not technicians sent by a middle-man company.
No Inflated Pricing
National companies often mark prices up 2–3x. We don't.
Deal Direct With The Technician
No wondering who or when. It's always us.
SO16 includes busy employment areas as well as quieter residential roads, so we attend vehicles at homes, offices and safe roadside locations.
Our Chilworth coverage includes the Old Village, Chilworth Road, Manor Road, Roman Road, the Science Park and roads towards Bassett. Direct access from the M3 and M27 helps us reach calls throughout the area. For gated or private driveways, mention access arrangements when booking so we can bring the mobile workshop straight to the vehicle.
Premium and keyless vehicles can require more than a cut blade, so we confirm the system from the registration before attending.

Key programming serviceWhere supported, we can produce a working key without the original and disable the missing key from starting the vehicle.
Lost-key replacement optionsProfessional tools and model-specific methods allow most lockouts to be resolved without damage to the vehicle.
Non-destructive vehicle entryChilworth sits at the centre of this coverage, while nearby routes lead towards Chandler’s Ford, North Stoneham and Eastleigh.
A workplace call at the Science Park needs a different approach from a vehicle on a private road, but both can usually be handled on site. Use the neighbouring town pages when the car is beyond Chilworth itself, or send the exact postcode so we can identify the most direct route.
Mobile key cutting, immobiliser programming and non-destructive entry are completed with specialist equipment beside the vehicle.
Workplace lockouts, failed proximity keys and planned spare keys for premium family cars are common reasons to arrange an SO16 visit.
We first identify whether the issue is mechanical, electronic or simply a depleted fob battery. That prevents unnecessary replacement. Some newer security systems need module-level work and a small number remain dealer-only; we confirm support from the vehicle details rather than promising a key we cannot supply.
Send vehicle detailsStraight answers about coverage, access and arranging mobile car key work.
Prefer to send the details first? Use the contact page and include your registration, postcode and whether any working key remains.
Back to ChilworthSend your details and we'll call you back with a price. For anything urgent, just call.
Share your registration, SO16 location and the symptoms. We will check support and explain the next step before arranging the visit.
“Alec provided a speedy service at a good price after we bought a van that had no spare key, it was a complex job involving a OBD protector which he solved no problem. Would recommend.”
