Our Hyundai Key & Ignition Services
We offer a full range of mobile Hyundai services. Whether you need a spare, a replacement for a lost key, programming, or an ignition repair, we handle it at your location.
Hyundai Replacement Keys
Lost, stolen, or broken your only Hyundai key? We cut and program a new key for any model, from older transponder keys to modern keyless smart fobs — including "all keys lost" jobs. See our lost car key replacement service.
Hyundai Spare Keys
A spare Hyundai key is a sensible, lower-cost backup that saves you from being stranded later. We cut and program spares while your original still works — often by cloning. See our replacement car keys service.
Hyundai Key Programming
Every modern Hyundai key needs pairing to the car’s immobiliser to start the engine. We program transponder, remote, and keyless smart keys with dealer-grade equipment, so only your new key works.
Hyundai Key Fob Repair
Worn buttons, a cracked case, or a dead remote don’t always mean a new key. We repair Hyundai fobs — and replace the battery or re-house the electronics — on-site. See our key fob repair service.
Hyundai Key Repair
A bent, worn, or snapped Hyundai key can often be repaired rather than replaced — cheaper and quicker. If it’s beyond repair, we’ll cut a new one. See our car key repair service.
Hyundai Ignition Barrel Repair
If your key won’t turn, sticks, or the ignition feels worn, the barrel is usually the cause. We repair or replace the barrel and cut a matching key on-site. If the steering lock is jammed and the key won’t turn, that’s almost always the ignition barrel too. See our ignition barrel repair service.
Key Won’t Turn or Isn’t Detected?
Two of the most common Hyundai faults we’re called to: a key that won’t turn (usually a worn barrel or worn key) and a key that isn’t detected by the car (an immobiliser, transponder, or programming issue). We diagnose which it is on-site and fix it — whether that’s an ignition repair, a re-programme, or a new key.

Hyundai Key Types We Work With
Hyundai has used several key systems over the years, and we handle them all:
- Transponder (chipped) keys — fitted to most Hyundais since the early 2000s, needing programming to the immobiliser.
- Remote flip keys — the familiar fold-out blade keys used across the i10, i20, and i30 range.
- Keyless smart keys — proximity fobs on newer Tucson, Kona, and Ioniq models with push-button start.
- Older non-remote keys — simple transponder keys on classic Hyundai models.

How Much Does a Hyundai Key Cost?
Hyundai key prices depend on the model and key type — an older transponder key is simpler and cheaper than a keyless smart key for a new Tucson or Ioniq. We’re typically well below main-dealer prices and we come to you. Every quote includes the call-out and labour and is confirmed before we begin — no hidden extras.
A few things affect the exact price: the type of key (transponder, remote, or keyless), the cutting and programming involved, your model and year, and whether it’s a spare or all-keys-lost job. See our full pricing page, or call with your model and year for an accurate quote.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a replacement Hyundai key cost?
A spare or replacement Hyundai key starts from £79, depending on your model and the key type. We confirm the full price, including call-out and labour, before we start — usually well below main-dealer cost.
Can you make a Hyundai key if I’ve lost all of mine?
Yes. "All keys lost" is a job we do regularly on Hyundais — we program a new key from the vehicle, so you don’t need an existing key. We’ll need your V5C or proof of ownership and photo ID.
Can you program a Hyundai keyless / smart key?
Yes. We program Hyundai transponder, remote, and keyless smart keys using dealer-grade equipment, at your location.
My Hyundai key won’t turn — what’s wrong?
Usually a worn ignition barrel or a worn key. We diagnose it on-site and repair or replace the barrel, cutting a new key if needed.
How long does a Hyundai key take?
Most Hyundai keys are cut and programmed in 30 to 90 minutes on-site, depending on the model and key type. We give you a realistic timeframe when you call.
Do I need to bring my Hyundai to you?
No. We’re fully mobile and come to you — at home, at work, or at the roadside. We don’t tow your vehicle.
