Did you leave your keys inside the car, is your remote not working, or is your key stuck? At Cerrajeros ATH, we offer mobile automotive locksmith services in Benidorm and nearby towns.
We handle car lockouts, problems with locks and lock cylinders, lost keys, remote controls, and key fobs, as well as ignition issues and security locks for vans. Before we come out, we’ll ask for your vehicle’s information and explain the available options.

01 / VEHICLE SERVICES
We unlock cars that are locked with the keys inside the passenger compartment or in the trunk using the appropriate procedure for each vehicle.
We determine the cost of the service based on the make, model, year, chip, and immobilizer system. To proceed, you’ll need to provide proof of ownership of the vehicle.
The problem may be with the key, the door lock cylinder, the ignition switch, or the steering lock. Avoid forcing it so it doesn't break.
We check controllers, buttons, joysticks, casings, and other components when the service is compatible with the model.
02 / CAR LOCK-OUT SERVICE
We unlock cars, vans, and certain other vehicles when the keys are inside, the lock isn't responding, or the entry system has malfunctioned.
Before proceeding, we check the type of lock and obtain authorization from the owner or user. The technique depends on the make, model, year, and condition of the door, as well as whether there is any prior damage.
We always aim for a controlled opening and avoid forcing the lock without first explaining the procedure.
03 / KEYS, REMOTE CONTROLS, AND CASES
Modern keys may incorporate a blade, a transponder, a remote control, a proximity system, or a keyless entry system. Therefore, before confirming a duplicate, we need to identify the vehicle and the type of key.
We offer key duplication services for compatible vehicles. Having a spare key can help you avoid a more expensive repair if you lose your only key.
We check the compatibility of remote controls, frequencies, chips, and proximity systems by make and model.
A cracked case, worn buttons, or a damaged pin don't always mean you have to replace the entire key. First, we check which components can be salvaged.
We also address issues with duplicate keys and access problems on motorcycles when the system and key are compatible with the service.
We can help you with:
Before proceeding, we check the brand, model, and type of lock to choose the most appropriate method and avoid unnecessary damage.
04 / TOTAL LOSS OF KEYS
When all the keys are lost, the process is different from making a conventional duplicate. The vehicle may require a new key, a new key blank cut, transponder programming, and immobilizer programming.
To study the case, we usually need:
The solution and price depend on the vehicle's electronic system. We confirm in advance what work can be done and what documentation needs to be submitted.
05 / START-UP AND IMMOBILIZER
Wear on the spindle, internal parts of the drum, or a jammed steering mechanism can prevent rotation. Do not use force or improvised tools.
There may be a problem with the transponder, immobilizer, vehicle battery, or another electronic component. It is important to distinguish between a lock malfunction and a mechanical or electrical problem.
Depending on the condition of the system, it may be possible to repair, modify, or replace the cylinder. An assessment is conducted before any components are removed.
06 / VAN SAFETY

Work vans are typically used to transport tools, machinery, and merchandise. We can install additional locks to reinforce the side and rear doors and make unauthorized access more difficult.
Depending on compatibility and availability, we work with specialized brands such as UFO Meroni, Gatelock, Daken, Mul-T-Lock, Saturn Evo, and Heosafe, as well as other professional systems tailored to each vehicle.
We can install:
Before recommending a lock, we check the van’s make and model, the door layout, the vehicle’s daily use, and the required level of security. Not all locks are compatible with all vans, so we choose the most suitable system for each installation.
07 / MOBILE ASSISTANCE
It's not always possible to move a car when the keys are inside, have been lost, or the ignition won't turn. For this reason, the service is provided at the vehicle's location whenever the repair can be performed there.

With this information, we can better assess the materials needed, the approximate time required, and the budget.

Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT, Škoda, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Opel, Ford, Renault, Peugeot, Citroën, Fiat, Toyota, Nissan, Kia, Hyundai, Dacia, Volvo, Mini, Alfa Romeo, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lexus, Suzuki, and other brands.
