How Our Nissan Key & Lock Service Works
We bring the Nissan dealership capability to your roadside, driveway, or workplace—without the delays and towing. Here’s our simple process:
- Diagnose and secure
- We confirm your Nissan model, year, and key type (standard transponder, remote, or smart/proximity).
- Quick security checks for your peace of mind—our technicians are DBS-checked and fully insured.
- If you’re locked out, we gain entry using non-destructive methods to retrieve keys where possible.
- Cut and code your Nissan key
- Key cutting: We cut a new or spare key on-board using precision laser cutting for high-security blades where required.
- Programming: We program the transponder chip and remote functions using OBD2 diagnostics or advanced EEPROM/ECU immobiliser programming for models that require it.
- Smart keys: For Nissan Intelligent Key systems (push-to-start/proximity), we pair new fobs and synchronise immobiliser and central locking systems.
- Test and handover
- We test lock/unlock, boot release, and engine start.
- We provide guidance on battery care for your fob and store a secure record of your key profile for future spares (never shared).
- Workmanship and key warranties supplied where applicable.

Common Nissan Key & Immobiliser Issues We Solve
- Lost or stolen Nissan keys: Secure deletion of missing keys from the car’s memory and coding of new keys to prevent unauthorised use. See lost or stolen car keys.
- Key won’t turn or stuck in ignition: Diagnosis of the ignition barrel/steering lock and key blade wear; repair or replacement as needed. See car lock and ignition issues.
- Nissan key fob not working: Battery replacement, button pad repair, or complete fob replacement and programming. See key fob not working.
- Snapped or damaged keys: Extraction from lock/ignition and on-site cutting of a new blade; remote shell replacements where appropriate. See broken car key.
- Central locking faults: Remote central locking repair, re-synchronisation, and receiver/antenna checks.
Nissan Key Types We Handle
- Traditional transponder keys: Immobiliser chip programmed to your ECU.
- Remote keys (flip or fixed blade): Lock/unlock functions plus immobiliser coding.
- Smart/proximity keys (Nissan Intelligent Key): Keyless entry and push-to-start pairing, including emergency start procedures when fob battery is low.
- High-security laser cut keys: Precision cutting and coding for newer models and vans.
A transponder is a small chip in your key that talks to your car’s immobiliser. If it isn’t programmed properly, the engine won’t start—even if the blade turns. We use dealer-level equipment for accurate, secure programming.

FAQs: Nissan Keys, Fobs and Locks
Can you make a new Nissan key without the original?
Yes. We can decode the lock or use secure data methods to create and program a new key or smart fob without the original. This is a common request for lost-only-key situations.
Will you damage my Nissan when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. In the rare event a component is already damaged or a specific model requires a different approach, we’ll explain and agree the plan with you first.
How long does Nissan key programming take?
Most Nissan keys and fobs are cut and programmed on-site in one visit. Many jobs take under an hour once we’re with the vehicle, though times vary by model, key type, and security state.
Can you program Nissan Intelligent Key (smart/proximity) fobs?
Absolutely. We handle push-to-start and keyless entry programming, synchronising immobiliser, remote functions, and, where relevant, boot release.
My Nissan says “Key Not Detected”. What should I do?
First, try replacing the fob battery and hold the fob near the start button for emergency start, if supported. If that fails, we can diagnose antenna/receiver issues, re-synchronise the fob, or program a replacement if needed. See key fob not working.
Do you cover Nissan vans and fleets in the TW area?
Yes, we support NV200, NV300, NV400 and other commercial models, including spare keys, lost keys, and immobiliser issues. Learn more at our Van & Commercial Locksmith.
