Expert Fiat Locksmith Services
At Terry’s Locksmiths, we understand that Fiat vehicles, with their distinct systems and requirements, need specialized attention. Here’s a breakdown of the services we offer:
-
All Keys Lost Situations:
- Security Code Requirement: For Fiat models where all keys are lost, the client must provide the security code. Fiat indicates that this code is typically found in the vehicle logbook. Without this code, it can be challenging to access or program new keys.

Spare Key Creation:

The process involves using key blanks like the LSC Silca Key SIP22R01 and SIP22R07, now replaced with the SSIP22R34, which accommodates both types. Our expertise ensures that we can program and cut spare keys that are compatible with your Fiat model.
