How We Work On Ford Vehicles

We follow a clear, professional process focused on keeping damage to your vehicle to an absolute minimum:

  1. Quick Assessment — We ask a few questions over the phone (vehicle model, year, problem) to prepare the right tools and parts.
  2. Mobile Diagnostics On Site — Our vans carry dealer‑level diagnostic tools, OBD2 programmers and EEPROM access tools so we can read immobiliser data and transponder IDs without taking parts to a workshop.
  3. Non‑Destructive Entry Wherever Possible — We use lock picks, air wedges and specialist Ford entry tools to avoid drilling or cutting. If a non‑destructive method isn’t possible we’ll explain the reason and agree any required work before starting.
  4. Key Cutting And Programming — We cut laser keys or standard blades on site and program transponder chips and smart keys using OBD2/EERPOM techniques as required. For proximity and push‑to‑start keys we use secure programming routines using dealer‑level equipment.
  5. Final Check And Warranty — We test all locks, remotes and the ignition/starting system before we leave and provide a written warranty on workmanship and keys.

A quick note on transponders and programming: modern Ford keys contain a small transponder chip that communicates with the car’s immobiliser. Our technicians can read and write these chips with secure tools, allowing us to provide replacement keys and reprogram existing ones without visiting a dealer in most cases.

Tools, Training And Safety

We invest in training and equipment so we match or exceed dealer capability on site:

  • Dealer‑level diagnostic tools and authorised OBD2 programmers for Ford vehicles
  • EEPROM access and secure key cloning where applicable
  • Laser key cutting machines and high‑security blanks for newer Ford keys
  • Public liability insurance and DBS‑checked technicians for peace of mind
  • Over 10 years’ experience working on Ford models and modern immobiliser systems

We carry parts and genuine blanks where required, and only use dealer parts if you request them or if they are necessary for repair.

Pricing And Value

We don’t publish fixed prices online because Ford key and immobiliser work varies by model, key type and fault. Price factors include the vehicle year, whether the key is a basic blade or a smart/proximity fob, and whether immediate emergency attendance is required.

Choosing a local, mobile Ford auto locksmith often provides faster service and better value than dealer replacement, especially for emergency key replacement and on‑site programming.

If your issue is not limited to keys, we can also help with: locked doors and boot openings (Vehicle Unlocking), spare Ford keys (Car Key Replacement), or fleet and van locksmith needs (Van & Commercial Locksmith).

FAQs

Can a locksmith make a Ford key without the original?

Yes. In most cases we can create and program a new Ford key without the original by using the car’s immobiliser data via OBD2 or EEPROM reads. The exact method depends on the model and year.

How long does it take to get a new Ford key?

On‑site replacement and programming for many Ford models can be completed in under an hour once we’re with you, though more complex smart keys or immobiliser issues can take longer. We’ll give a time estimate after the initial diagnosis.

Will you damage my Ford to gain entry?

We use non‑destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If we determine a destructive approach is the only option, we’ll explain why and agree the work before proceeding.

Do you provide warranty on replacement Ford keys?

Yes. We provide a warranty on workmanship and new keys (typically 12 months). Warranty terms will be confirmed with your quote.
