Description

If you bring your own car key into a Key Cutter, some will refuse, and some will happily offer the service but will offer no guarantees.

Many car key shells on Ebay etc are made of cheap material which is prone to breakages.  The metal in these blades are often very hard which can damage the very expensive key cutting machinery.

Many of these keys are manufactured incorrectly in China and the dimensions are slightly off.  This means they could seize or break in the ignition.  With customers then blaming the person that cut the key instead of the sub standard product, it’s easy to see why many decline to offer this service.

If may be worth contacting the business before you bring your own key in to know for sure.

It is unlikely that a mobile auto locksmith will offer this service.

Price For Ultion WXM Key Cutting

Key Cutting
The Ultion WXM is an upgrade to the Ultion lock and brings added protection and security.  The Ultion WXM two-part plug design uses molybdenum instead or brass to make it more robust. It also houses two hardened SS630 attack pins that fire when an attack is detected.  The new Ultion WXM Keys are around 33% thicker than the original Ultion Keys.  The reason for this is to allow more pin heights resulting in more picking difficulty. These keys are new on the market in 2020 and are not yet widely available in key cutting shops across the British Isles.  It's best to contact the shop beforehand to see if they are able to cut a WXM key.
