Areas we cover / Your questions

Before you
make the call.

A little clarity can make the next step feel simpler.

How should I use the areas we cover directory?

Start with the region where your vehicle is parked: Kent, South East London or Essex. The areas we cover directory links to regional pages and the existing town guides. Choose the vehicle’s location rather than your home address if they are different. Each regional page provides a useful route into the relevant local information and the key services you can ask about.

This directory is a guide for starting an enquiry. A listed region or town does not confirm availability for every postcode or vehicle. Send the full postcode, make, model and year, then explain what has happened to the key. We can check the location and suitable service together before discussing a visit. If your town is not listed, include it in your enquiry rather than assuming either that it is covered or excluded. You can also explain whether another key remains, how you normally unlock and start the vehicle, and whether the key problem is new or has developed over time. This helps us direct the enquiry towards the relevant service without asking you to identify electronic parts yourself.

Do your service area include every postcode in each region?

No. A region name or a shaded map does not confirm that a mobile visit can be arranged at every address. The areas we cover need to be checked against the vehicle’s exact location and the service required. Use the full postcode rather than just the nearest large town, particularly if the car is at a workplace, on private land or outside the town centre.

When checking the areas we cover, tell us about access restrictions as well as the address. A locked gate, managed car park or vehicle parked away from the road may affect the arrangements for reaching it. We will discuss coverage, compatibility and availability before a visit is agreed. An enquiry does not reserve an appointment or confirm an arrival time, so wait for the arrangements to be confirmed directly. For practical security guidance, read Police.uk’s vehicle theft prevention advice.

What if my town is not shown in the areas we cover?

Send the vehicle’s town and full postcode so we can check. The areas we cover directory points to the existing regional and town pages; it is not an exhaustive list of every address where an enquiry might be considered. Choose the most relevant regional page for background information, but give us the actual vehicle location when you contact us.

Coverage should not be inferred from a nearby town alone. If the car is outside the place where you live, make that clear. Include whether it is at home, at work or somewhere with restricted access, together with the vehicle make, model, year and key problem. We can discuss the appropriate next step after checking those details. Please do not arrange someone to wait at the vehicle until a visit and its availability have been agreed.

Can I use a neighbouring town guide to check your service area?

A neighbouring town guide can help you understand the kinds of key enquiries to describe, but it does not establish availability at your postcode. The areas we cover are organised by region so you can find relevant information without relying on a different town’s name. Start with the Kent, South East London or Essex page that matches the vehicle’s location.

When asking about the areas we cover, include your own postcode and town even if you have read a nearby guide. Availability is checked for the particular enquiry and vehicle. Tell us whether you need a spare, have lost every key or are reporting a fault, because those situations require different checks. If you are unsure which service applies, explain what still works rather than choosing a replacement key based on its appearance. A useful town guide should help you prepare the enquiry, rather than decide compatibility on its own. Have the registration ready if calling, and use an email address you can check if sending the form. Explain any previous key work that may be relevant.

What does the map tell me about the areas we cover?

The map gives an indicative picture of the areas we cover. It helps you understand the broad service area, rather than confirming individual postcodes or an appointment. Use the directory links alongside the map to find the appropriate regional information, then contact us with the vehicle’s actual postcode. The vehicle may be somewhere different from your home address.

Do not treat the shaded areas we cover as a guarantee that a visit can be arranged for every vehicle or key system. Coverage and suitability need to be checked together. Explain whether a working key remains and whether you can access the vehicle. If a car park entrance is elsewhere or a site needs an access arrangement, mention that when enquiring. We can discuss those details before confirming the work and the proposed visit.

How do I check a mobile visit within your service area?

Contact Kent Car Keys with the vehicle postcode, make, model, year and a description of the problem. For a visit within the areas we cover, explain where the car is parked and whether you or another person can provide access. Tell us about entry gates, site reception, parking restrictions or any arrangements needed to reach the vehicle.

The areas we cover are checked alongside current availability and compatibility for your vehicle. Our advertised hours are Monday to Saturday, 7am to 7pm, with Sunday closed. Sending a form starts a conversation; it does not book a visit or confirm an arrival time. Agree the quote, location and access directly before making plans around an appointment. If someone else will meet us, confirm how they will reach the car and what information they should have ready.

Do your service area change the key service I should ask about?

Choose the service based on what has happened to your key, then use the areas we cover directory to find the relevant location information. Ask about a spare if a working key remains, lost-key help if none is available, or repair advice for a damaged key or faulty remote. If you are unsure, describe the symptoms and what still works.

The areas we cover do not establish that every make, model, year or key arrangement is supported. Give us the exact vehicle details so suitable options can be checked before work is confirmed. A key that starts the engine but has faulty buttons is a different enquiry from a completely missing key. Mention any earlier repairs, damage or a key bought elsewhere; these details help us understand the work you actually need. The service pages explain the differences between an additional key, lost-key replacement and a key or fob fault. Reading the relevant guide can help you describe the problem, but the proposed work and price still need to be confirmed for the actual vehicle. You can check vehicle details through GOV.UK’s vehicle information service.

What information should I send after checking the areas we cover?

After checking the areas we cover, send your vehicle make, full model, year, postcode and a clear description of the key problem. Tell us whether any working key remains and whether the vehicle is accessible. Use an email address you can check for a response. If you call, have the registration and relevant vehicle details ready for the conversation.

An enquiry about the areas we cover is a request to check your location and requirements. There is no need to attach photographs of personal documents with the initial form. We can discuss what information is needed before arranging work. Confirm the suitable service, quote and proposed visit directly. A submitted form does not establish availability, reserve an appointment or confirm that every vehicle and key system can be supported.
