We collaborate with insurance companies and breakdown providers to offer professional, cost-effective car key replacement solutions for policyholders who have lost or damaged their car keys.
Understanding the urgency of insurance claims, our mobile locksmith services are designed to respond quickly, helping insurers reduce claim times and ensuring customers can get back on the road without delay.
Insurance providers need fast, reliable, and cost-effective solutions when policyholders lose their keys, suffer a theft, or experience lock or immobiliser issues. South Devon Auto Locksmiths deliver professional locksmith services that help insurers resolve claims quickly, accurately, and with minimal disruption.
1. Rapid Response for Policyholders
Speed matters during a claim. We offer fast, mobile attendance across South Devon, helping customers regain access to their vehicles and get back on the road without lengthy delays or recovery fees.
2. Cost-Effective Alternative to Dealerships
Dealerships often require vehicle recovery and can take days or weeks to supply car key replacements. We cut and program new keys on-site—usually the same day—saving insurers significant costs on:
- Recovery/towing
- Dealer labour rates
- Vehicle downtime
3. Full Lost & Stolen Key Solutions
We provide secure and compliant services for lost or stolen key claims, including:
- Key deletion from the immobiliser
- Reprogramming new secure keys
- Non-destructive access
- Lock changes where required
- Immobiliser resets and diagnostics
This ensures the vehicle remains fully protected after a security-related claim.
4. Professional Reports & Diagnostics
We deliver clear, accurate diagnostic reports to assist insurance handlers with:
- Theft recovery checks
- Immobiliser faults
- Lock damage assessments
- Key programming issues
This helps insurers make informed decisions quickly.
5. Mobile Service – No Need for Recovery
We attend the policyholder’s home, workplace, roadside location, or recovery yard. Our mobile workshop carries everything required to:
- Cut new keys
- Program remotes and proximity keys
- Gain access without damage
- Diagnose lock or immobiliser issues
This dramatically speeds up claim resolution.
6. Customer-Focused Service
We communicate clearly with policyholders, reducing stress during what is often a frustrating situation. Our professional approach reflects well on insurers and improves customer satisfaction.
7. Trusted Specialists in Automotive Security
Insurance companies choose us because we specialise only in vehicle locks, immobilisers, and keys. We work on most makes and models, including modern proximity systems, meaning fewer referrals and faster claim completion.
