Transponder Keys


In the past if you needed a new or replacement transponder key, you'd have to contact a local dealer who would then source one from the manufacturer. Not surprisingly, this is a costly and time consuming exercise. 

Smithlocks offers a cheaper and faster alternative to dealerships. Keys can be duplicated within minutes at our hobart service centre, or in our mobile locksmith workshop. If you've lost your transponder keys, no worries, we don't need them to replace your key. At Smithlocks we're proud that we can cut and code transponder car keys for more makes and models than any other locksmith in Tasmania.

European Cars
Other locksmiths will tell you that European transponder keys can't be cloned. They can. We code keys for Mercedes, Peugeot, Saab, Land Rover, Audi and many others. If we haven't listed your European car here, don't worry, chances are we that we can do it. Contact us, or just complete our quote request form and we'll advise whether it can be done and how much will cost.
