About our business
The locksmith who answers the phone is the one who turns up.
Mobile Auto Locksmith Hamilton is a local, owner-run mobile auto locksmith built around one idea: get Waikato drivers back into their vehicles quickly, at a fair and transparent price, without damaging anything.
After more than a decade working on vehicle security across the region, we invested in the same class of key cutting and immobiliser programming equipment that franchise dealerships use — then put it in a van. That decision means a lost-key job anywhere from Raglan to Matamata no longer requires a tow to Auckland or a week off the road.
We work on everything from a 1990s chipped-blade Corolla to a current-generation push-to-start ute, plus trucks, tradie vans, motorcycles and commercial fleets. Residential lock work, digital door locks and house lockouts round out the service for the same customers who call us for their vehicles.
No call centre. No subcontractors. No surprise invoices. You get a firm price on the phone, a real ETA, and a locksmith who tidies up and explains what was done before leaving.

Tools we use
The equipment in our van.
Key programmers
Silca SmartPro, Autel, Snap-on, Launch, Xhorse, Xtool PAD, OBDSTAR and ACDP. Between them they cover transponder, remote and smart keys across Japanese, European, Korean, American and Chinese makes, including reading the immobiliser directly when a car will not accept a key through the diagnostic port.
Car keys and remotes
Silca keys, blanks and remotes, cut and programmed at your vehicle.
House keys
Yale and Lockwood key blanks for house, flat and padlock keys.
Key cutting machines
Silca Futura and Xhorse Condor, so a key is cut accurately at your car rather than taken away and brought back.
Lishi picks
Lishi picks for decoding the lock on all makes and models when every key is lost, so a new key can be cut from the car itself.
Transponder and remote testers
RW4 and RW5 transponder readers, and KD-X4 and Xhorse Key Tool Max for remotes, so we can tell whether the fault is the key, the chip or the car before anything is replaced.
