Can all who have had a Flip Key cut post details here to help other people out. Thanks

I have found a Timpsons in Waltham Cross and will give it a go on saturday, so I will let you know if they can cut it there.

hmm took my flip into Timpsons in Falkirk, had it cut, looks like a perfect copy of existing key, tried it in ignition - only goes half way and jams! think i might take my dremel tool to it

I'd take it back to Timpsons and get them to take a look. If you make a mistake they will not want to know.

they havent cut it deep enough, mine was the same until it was cut on the laser cutter, then fitted perfect.

Holdfast security systems, Crewe, 01270 505902. cost me £12 and I had to clean it up with a file but it worked okin the end.

I've also had problems with my key at TIMPSONS in RUGBY.

I took it back today and they went over it again, looks perfect, but it still will only go half way in the ignition.

The guy did it for £3 in the charity tin, which I thought a fair deal, but not at the expense of ruining the key, which cost £14 !

Guess I may as well play around with a file on the tip as it seems something is not allowing to enter the lock fully, at least it now also enters the door lock half way now; it would go in at all yesterday.
