Car lock and key services
A car key is no longer just cut metal. Many contain a transponder chip that must be programmed to the vehicle, and some use laser-cut (high-security) blades. Our vans carry key-cutting and programming equipment for a wide range of makes, which means you often avoid a tow to the dealer.

Have your registration or title and photo ID ready. We must confirm you own the vehicle before opening it or making a key, which protects you as much as us.
Why a spare key is worth it
Replacing a lost key from scratch takes more time and costs more than cloning one you already have. If you only have one key for your car, ask us to cut and program a spare while it still works.
Car key questions
Can you make a car key if I have lost every key?
Often, yes. Many vehicles can have a new key cut and programmed on site. Have your registration or title and photo ID ready, and tell us the make, model and year so we can confirm it is possible for your car.
Do you program transponder keys and remotes?
We program transponder keys for many makes and models. A few newer vehicles need dealer-only equipment; we will tell you on the phone if yours is one of them.
Will opening my car damage it?
Technicians use purpose-made automotive entry tools rather than force, which keeps the risk of damage low. They will explain the method before they start.
How much does a car key cost?
It depends on the vehicle, the key type and whether it needs programming. Call with your vehicle details for a quote before any work begins.
