Lettings agents ignore my requests

Either the letting agents are just clueless and haven't got around to it yet or the landlord hasn't agreed it. No matter how much the letting agents may agree with you they may not actually be able to get the landlord to do anything (especially if they have to pay for anything - they're not going to see themselves out of pocket).
You need to write to the actual landlord (see your tenancy agreement) and ask that it be sorted out.

They haven't come back to me with a cost though. The LL can't just not agree to giving me a key. He can agree to making me pay for the key, but I can't see how he can restrict access to a part of the property that's in my tenancy. Hence why I am sure the LA is just lazy.

I'd rather not contact my LL as I obviously don't want to disturb them with matters that are meant to be dealt with by the LA.

We bought one of these to clone the existing remote for the communal car park and it worked. You might need to play a few times to get the programme to take since your original one isn't consistently working, or ask a neighbour to use theirs to programme it.

Thanks, purchased! For £3.39 its worth a go even as a spare.
