Car Key Duplication Chelmsford
Lost or broken car keys are one of the most common call-outs we handle across Essex. Authorised Auto Locksmiths cuts and programmes car keys on-site in Chelmsford, saving you the cost and delay of going through a main dealer. We work on a wide range of makes and models.
Spare Car Keys Chelmsford
A spare car key is something most drivers only think about once it is too late. We provide spare keys for most vehicle models, cut and programmed at your location. If you already have a working key, we duplicate it on the same visit.
Transponder Keys and Smart Keys
Most modern vehicles use transponder keys or smart keys that contain a chip programmed to the car's ECU. Without correct programming, the key will open the door but will not start the vehicle. Our technicians carry the equipment to programme transponder keys on-site in Chelmsford, including keyless entry systems and proximity fobs for a full range of vehicle models.

Car Key Replacement Chelmsford
Car key replacement involves more than cutting a new blade. Modern vehicle keys contain chips that must be paired with the car through programming. Without this step, the key will not start the vehicle. Authorised Auto Locksmiths handles both the cutting and the programming — all at your location in Chelmsford.
Car Key Programming in Chelmsford
We programme car keys for a wide range of makes and models across Chelmsford and Essex. This includes BMW, Ford, Vauxhall, Volkswagen, Toyota, Nissan, and many others. All work is done at your location using professional key programming equipment — no recovery, no dealership, no unnecessary delay.
Lost All Your Keys?
If you have lost all car keys and have no spare, we can still provide car key replacement. Using diagnostic equipment and the vehicle identification number, we programme a new key without needing the original. Call us and explain your situation — we will confirm what is possible and give you a clear price.

We duplicate and programme remote fobs for most car makes. If your existing fob is damaged, we may be able to repair it on-site. If full replacement is needed, we programme the new fob directly to your vehicle so it works straight away. We also handle keyless entry fobs and proximity keys that have lost their programming after a battery change or signal issue.
