Stansted Airport car key replacement in the car park, day or night
Landed at London Stansted Airport with no key, a dead fob or keys locked inside the car? A KeyFast van comes to the terminal or car park with the cutting and coding kit on board, 24 hours a day, for a quote agreed before we set off. Stansted is a straight run up the A130 and M11 from south Essex. Long stay and the off-airport compounds are where most of our calls come from, usually a key lost in transit or a fob that has given up after a fortnight outside.

The things drivers ask us most.
How much does a replacement car key cost?
It depends on your make, model and key type, but you always get a quote agreed before any work starts. No call-out fee, and if we cannot sort it there is no charge at all.
I've lost all my car keys, can you still help?
Yes. We cut and program a fresh key on your driveway and wipe the lost keys from the immobiliser, so there is no main-dealer recovery and no long wait.
Do you cover keyless and push-to-start keys?
Yes. Smart keys, proximity fobs and keyless push-to-start systems, as well as traditional blade keys and remotes, on almost every car on UK roads.
How quickly can you reach me?
Average response is around 30 to 45 minutes, often sooner in town. We are on call 24 hours a day, including weekends and bank holidays.
What do you need from me to make a new key?
Usually just your registration, the make, model and year, and proof the car is yours. From the reg we identify the exact key and immobiliser system before we set off.
Do you guarantee your work?
Every key we cut, code and fit is tested with you on site before we leave. If anything we have done is not right, tell us and we come back and put it right.
Do you cover Stansted Airport from Southend?
Yes. It is roughly an hour up the M11 and we attend all Stansted parking, including the off-airport Green and Jet Parks compounds.
Can you replace a smart key at Stansted long stay?
Yes. Proximity and smart keys are cut, programmed and tested at the car, so there is no need for a dealer booking or a recovery truck.
Will you quote before driving up to Stansted?
Always. We agree a clear quote on the phone from your registration, and the distance is included in that price.
