The service

What is

When you have no working key, a locksmith can cut a new key for your car. Most newer cars also have a chip in the key. That chip has to be programmed to your car or the engine will not start. We do both at your car, so you do not need a tow.

Key types we make: [VERIFY which key types you make, for example standard keys, chip (transponder) keys, laser-cut keys, and push-to-start smart keys].

When you need it

  • You lost every key to your car
  • Your key broke in half
  • Your key is worn and will not turn the ignition
  • You bought a used car that came with one key
  • You want a spare before you lose the last one

How it works

  1. Call with your car infoTell us the year, make, and model. A photo of your key (if you have it) helps.

  3. We make the keyWe check ownership, cut the key, and program the chip if your car needs it.
  4. We test it with youDoors, ignition, and start. You do not pay for a key that does not work. [VERIFY]

Common questions

Do I need to tow my car anywhere?

No. We are a mobile locksmith. We make the key at your car.

Can you make a key if I have no original?

In many cases, yes. Call with your year, make, and model and we will tell you if we can do your car. [VERIFY]

What is a chip (transponder) key?

It is a key with a small chip inside. Your car reads the chip before it lets the engine start. A new chip key must be programmed to your car.

My key works but I only have one. Should I get a spare?

Yes. Copying a working key is usually much simpler than replacing a key when all keys are lost.
