Common Car Key Problems We Solve in Bishopsgate
Because we specialise in vehicle keys and locks, we can usually resolve issues on the spot, including:

- Broken or snapped car key – if your key has snapped in the lock or ignition, we offer broken key extraction and replacement. Learn more about how we handle a broken car key.
- Key fob not working – we diagnose whether the issue is your fob, battery, or the vehicle’s locking system, and provide a solution. Read more on key fob not working problems.

FAQs – Bishopsgate Auto Locksmith
Do you come into the City and around Liverpool Street?
Yes. Bishopsgate, Liverpool Street and the surrounding EC2 area are part of our core service zone. Our mobile vans regularly assist drivers in office complexes, side streets, loading bays and public car parks in and around the City of London and East London.
Can you make a new car key in Bishopsgate if I have no original?
Yes. In most cases we can make a new car key without the original using specialist tools and data, then program it to your vehicle’s immobiliser system. This is often quicker and more convenient than arranging recovery to a dealership.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
Our priority is non‑destructive entry. We use professional lock‑picking and entry tools specifically designed for vehicle locks, and in the vast majority of cases we open cars without any damage. If we encounter a situation where drilling or replacing a lock is the only realistic option, we will explain this and get your approval before proceeding.
How long does it usually take to get a new key?
Many Bishopsgate customers are back on the road the same visit. For straightforward key replacement and programming, we typically complete the work in one appointment at your vehicle. The exact time depends on your car’s make, model and the type of key required, but we always aim to work efficiently so you can carry on with your day.
Can you help with company cars and lease vehicles?
Yes. We often work with fleet managers, company car drivers, and lease vehicles parked around Bishopsgate and the wider EC2 area. We can liaise with your employer, lease or fleet company if needed and provide suitable documentation for the work carried out.
What should I do first if my keys are lost or stolen near Bishopsgate?
Try to stay calm and keep your vehicle in sight if possible. If you suspect theft, consider informing the police and, if appropriate, your insurer. Then call us on 020 4634 3057. We can supply new keys, erase old ones from the system and advise on re‑securing your car to prevent stolen keys from being used.
