Do you work on older vehicles without computer chips? expand_more
Absolutely! We cut keys for all vehicles, from classic cars to modern ones. Older vehicles with simple keys are actually our most efficient jobs. We can often have you a new key professionally for vehicles from the 1990s and earlier.
Why should I use a locksmith instead of the dealership? expand_more
We come to you—no towing needed. We're typically significantly more convenient than dealers. And we're available during operating hours, not just during business hours. Our keys are identical quality to dealer keys, programmed with the same professional equipment.
My key fob isn't working. Is it just the battery? expand_more
Often yes! Key fob batteries typically last a few years. We can test and replace the battery on-site professionally. If the fob itself is damaged or needs reprogramming, we can handle that too without a trip to the dealer.
My key turns hard in the ignition. What's wrong? expand_more
This usually indicates a worn ignition cylinder. If ignored, it can leave you stranded when the key stops turning entirely. We can repair or replace your ignition cylinder on-site. Most repairs take about an hour.
I lost all my car keys. Can you still help? expand_more
Absolutely. We can create a new key from scratch for most vehicles. We'll verify ownership, program a new transponder or smart key, and have you driving again. This is much more convenient than towing to a dealership.
Can you make keys for push-to-start vehicles? expand_more
Yes, we have the equipment to program smart keys (proximity keys) for most push-to-start vehicles. These keys communicate wirelessly with your car, so programming requires specialized tools we carry in our mobile units.
