A damaged car key?
We repair the shell.
You get moving.
Physical repairs to existing car keys, including damaged shells and flip-key or remote casings. Send a photo of the key and we’ll confirm whether we can help.

Physical car-key repairs, clearly explained.
A worn shell or broken flip-key casing does not always mean replacing the complete key. We carry out physical repairs to existing car keys, subject to the key type and available parts. Tell us what is damaged and, for a car key, include the make, model and year.

Send a photo of the key with the vehicle make, model and year. We can confirm whether a physical shell or casing repair is suitable.

Warranty depends on the lock fitted and the condition of the door. Ask Marcel to explain the applicable hardware and workmanship terms before the work starts.
