Locksmith services for Vauxhall keys, locks and ignitions.
Faster & cheaper than Vauxhall dealerships.
We've been cutting and programming Vauxhall keys across Dorset, Hampshire & Salisbury for years. From Corsa, Astra, Mokka, Grandland, Insignia and the Vivaro — and even classic models like the Vauxhall Cavalier.
Auto Locksmith Specialists covers the full Vauxhall range — from older Corsa, Astra and Vectra models through to the current Mokka-e, Astra Electric and Vivaro-e. Whether your Vauxhall uses an older blade key with a basic transponder, a flip remote fob, or a modern proximity key, we cut and programme replacements on-site using compatible diagnostic equipment — no dealership trip required.
Vauxhall's immobiliser systems have changed significantly across generations. Older models used Thatcham Category 1 transponders; current models share the Stellantis platform with Peugeot and Citroën, which uses encrypted BSI (Built-in Systems Interface) module pairing. We cover the full range, including all-keys-lost situations on both older mechanical ignition models and newer push-button keyless cars.
Locked your keys in your Vauxhall? Non-destructive entry on Vauxhall models is straightforward for us — we get you back in without marking the door, bending the frame or triggering the alarm in most cases. Worn ignition barrels and faulty door lock actuators are also common Vauxhall jobs, particularly on higher-mileage Corsas and Astras; we carry replacement parts and recode them to your existing key where possible.
Remote fob faults — where the central locking stops responding to the key — are one of the most common Vauxhall call-outs. This is usually a dead fob battery, a pairing reset, or a damaged internal button contact. We diagnose and resolve these on-site in most cases, without needing to order parts. Spare key cutting and programming is also available, and at Vauxhall prices it is one of the most cost-effective spares to have made before you ever need it. We cover all Vauxhall models across Dorset, Hampshire and Salisbury, 24 hours a day.

I was down in Bournemouth for the weekend when I lost my keys. I called up Auto Locksmith Specialists, they sent out a guy called Matt who helped me get back in my car. Matt was a lovely lad, and I was very impressed he managed to get me into my car without my keys! They also cut me a key! 10/10 would recommend👍🏼
