FAQ

Common questions

Do I need to bring the vehicle?

For many jobs, the vehicle will need to be present for testing or programming. You can bring it to Dannevirke, or we may be able to travel to you.

Can you make a spare if I already have one working key?

Yes, this is often the best time to organise a spare. It is usually easier and cheaper than waiting until all keys are lost.

Can you do push-button start fobs?

For many vehicles, yes. The exact answer depends on the model, year and key system. Send your rego and a photo of the existing fob if possible.

Why do you ask for proof of ownership?

Car keys are security-sensitive. We may need proof that you own the vehicle or have authority from the owner before cutting or programming keys.
