Locked your keys in the car in Fourways?
This page covers exactly one thing: opening a vehicle that is locked with the keys inside. We do not supply, programme or replace vehicle keys of any kind, and we do not touch immobilisers or transponders. If you need a new key, you need a vehicle key specialist or your dealer — and we would rather tell you that now than take a callout fee to say it in your driveway.
What this actually covers
Opening a locked vehicle where the keys are inside it, where a door has locked itself, or where a key no longer operates the lock and the spare is somewhere else. The work is non-destructive: purpose-made tools, and the vehicle left as it was found.
Proof the vehicle is yours is required before anything happens, exactly as it is with a house. A registration document, identification matching it, or insurance paperwork all work.
What it does not cover
We do not produce keys. That means no new keys, no replacements, no transponder or remote programming, and nothing involving the immobiliser. This is not a limitation of a particular day — it is not a service this business offers at all.
If your key is lost outright or broken beyond use, opening the vehicle gets you to your belongings but will not get you driving. A vehicle key specialist or your manufacturer's dealer is the right call, and phoning them first saves you a callout.
Honest limits
Some vehicles cannot be opened non-destructively with any reasonable effort, particularly newer models with deadlocking and reinforced door structures.
Where that is the case we will say so — on the phone if we can tell from the model, on arrival if it only becomes clear there. We would rather decline a job than force a door and leave you with a repair bill bigger than the problem you started with.

Vehicle Lockouts — common questions
Can you make me a new car key?
No. We do not supply or programme vehicle keys of any kind. If your key is lost or broken you need a vehicle key specialist or your dealer — phoning them rather than us will save you time and a wasted callout.
My keys are locked in the car. Can you open it?
That is precisely what this page covers. The vehicle is opened without damage where the model allows, once you have shown the car is yours.
What proof do you need?
A registration document, identification matching it, or insurance paperwork showing the vehicle in your name. Have something ready before the technician arrives.
Are there vehicles you will not attempt?
Yes. Some newer cars with deadlocking and reinforced doors cannot be opened non-destructively with reasonable effort, and we will tell you rather than force it and cause damage.
