Which Van Key Do You Need?
Most van keys we replace are flip remotes: a fold-out blade with lock and unlock buttons. Older and base-model vans often use a plain transponder key with a chip in the head, and newer vans can have a keyless proximity fob.
Whichever it is, the new key is cut or matched to your van and programmed to its immobiliser, so it starts the engine as well as opening the doors.
Not sure which you have? Enter your registration in the form and we will confirm the make, model and key type before we quote.

Trust Lock City:
We have been making vehicle keys across Bristol and Bath since 2005, and vans are a big part of it: about a third of the jobs in our archive are commercial vehicles.
What Our Customers say
Excellent experience. Great communication, efficient timing, good price, accommodating & a very warm and friendly service. Would definitely recommend!
Great service today from Barry, the 4th locksmith/key technician to have a go at accessing my car after the keys were locked in the boot. Almost resigned to smashing the window, but he managed to access the car after 2 hours in the wind and rain, with a broken mechanism inside the lock, confirmed by the others who attempted the pick, brilliant stuff.
I was in a real panic, having locked my keys in my boot. Delighted with the efficient and effective service from this company. Had my keys back in my hand in under 5 minutes. Strongly recommend
Bought a new car which only had one key. These guys came out and created a second one quickly and inexpensively. Way cheaper than going to the main dealer and the only people in Bristol who could do it for the Audi A1 I have. Brilliant service.
Locked my keys in my car so Called at 9:45 and was out by 11. Very quick in my eyes considering it wasn’t a booked appointment. Came and unlocked my car in longer than 5 minutes!
Amazing service! I got an email response within minutes on a Sunday night. Arrived as arranged 8:30 next morning and had me back on the road within 30 mins for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended.
Brilliant service and at a reasonable cost highly recommended using this company.
Spare Key or All Keys Lost?
If you still have one working key, a spare is the quicker and cheaper job. We copy the key you have and program the new one alongside it. About three in four of our van jobs are exactly this.
If every key is gone, the van needs a brand-new key made from scratch, and where the van allows it the lost keys are removed from its memory so they can no longer start it. That takes longer and costs more, which is why a spare made now is cheaper than a lost key later.
Spare keys start from £150 for a chipped key, £174 for a remote key and £222 for a keycard, including VAT; keyless fobs are priced once we know the van. You get your exact price before we set off.
Keys Programmed at Your Van
We come to you wherever the van is parked, across Bristol, Bath and the surrounding area, so there is no tow to a dealer and no wait for a key to be ordered in.
The new key is programmed to the van on the spot with diagnostic equipment, then tested on the doors and the ignition before we leave.
A worn or broken key does not always need replacing. If the electronics still work, a new case or a new blade can put it right for less; key repairs start from £49.
Locked out rather than missing a key? That is a different job, covered by our van locksmith service.
