I can re-tumble the ignition barrel to the same pattern as the door key, cut a replacement key and fit your programmed transponder from the old ignition key into the new key. You now have one key that fits all the locks."


Hi bancroftlocksmiths
On my Mk3 I have 1 key for drivers door and ignition, another key for passenger door and side loading doors, and another key for the tailgate :roll: How much £££ would it be to get all locks working off of 1 key, as I walk with a limp when all these keys are in my pocket :lol:


I'll take a look at your keys and locks and see what would be the best way to go on this one. Might have a couple of options for you.

Yeah, only easy when they are new, iv'e had some where there so smoothed and rounded it's taken a while to decode it. The 8 cut jaguar is dead easy, 8 cuts with 3 depths, while the ford is 6 cuts with 4 depths. :wink:

When it's that bad it's easier to stop a lock down.
