Automotive Locksmith Services Cape Town, South Africa
When something goes wrong with your car keys, it’s usually at the worst time. Whether you’ve lost them, locked them inside, or your ignition is acting up, you need practical help—fast.
Omnia Locks provides mobile automotive locksmith services across South Africa. Our locksmith comes to you, whether you’re at home, at work, or stuck on the side of the road.
Quick Help Wherever You Are
Most modern cars use coded keys and complex ignition systems. That means replacing or repairing keys isn’t always something a dealership can sort out quickly—or affordably.
What You Get with Our Mobile Locksmith Service
Assistance at your location – no towing required
Cutting and coding tools on-site
Help with most car models
Our goal is simple: Get you moving again, without wasting your time or adding to the stress.
Lost or Stolen Car Keys
If your only key has gone missing or been stolen, there’s no need to replace the full locking system or wait days for dealership support.
Our Car Key Services Include:
Key cutting at your location
Coding for remotes and transponder keys
Removing old or stolen key data from the system
Spare key creation
Even without the original key, we can create a new one on-site using your vehicle’s model information.
Locked Your Keys Inside the Car?
It happens. The doors lock automatically, or the remote fails. Don’t break a window.
Our locksmiths use safe entry tools to unlock your car without causing damage. One phone call and we’ll be there to assis
Ignition Issues Fixed On-Site
If your key won’t turn, keeps getting stuck, or the ignition barrel is worn out, trying to force it can do more harm than good.
We Can:
- Repair your current ignition
- Replace the barrel if needed
- Match a new ignition to your existing key (where possible)
We focus on fixing the root of the problem without creating new ones
Key Programming and Replacements
Modern car keys are more than just pieces of metal—they often contain electronic chips that sync with your car’s onboard system. If the chip isn’t working, the car won’t start.
We Offer Programming for:
- Transponder keys
- Flip keys
- Remote keys
- Smart entry systems
You’ll receive a working key that is compatible with your vehicle model.
