Everything You Need to Know About Ignition Repair
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.

Can you clone my existing transponder key? expand_more

For many vehicles, yes. We can copy the chip data from your existing key to a new blank. For high-security vehicles, we may need to program through your car's computer. Either way, we'll have you covered.

Do you bring hardware with you or do I need to purchase locks? expand_more

Our mobile units are stocked with a comprehensive inventory of Grade 1 and Grade 2 locks, deadbolts, and high-security hardware. While we carry components from industry-leading brands for same-day resolution, we can also source specialized hardware to meet your unique architectural or security requirements.

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.

Can you cut a car key using the VIN number? expand_more

Yes, our advanced mobile units can cut new car keys directly from the VIN number once ownership is verified. This specialized service is essential when all keys are lost and ensures a perfect factory-standard fit for your vehicle.

Are your locksmiths background checked? expand_more

Yes, every technician undergoes a thorough background check before joining our team. We also carry full insurance. You're trusting us with access to your home or business—we take that responsibility seriously.
