Dealer or mobile locksmith?
A dealer can make keys, but you usually have to get the car to them, and that may mean a tow if you have no working key. A mobile locksmith brings key cutting and programming equipment to the vehicle. Whether we can make your key on site depends on the make, model and year, so have that information and your VIN ready when you call.
What to have ready
For key replacement we ask for proof of ownership, such as the registration or title, plus photo ID. This protects you: nobody should be able to get a key made for your car without showing it is theirs.
Locked out on the roadside
If you are somewhere unsafe, call the police first. Otherwise, stay with the car if you can, and tell us the exact location and vehicle details. We will check availability and give you an estimate on the phone.
Frequently asked questions
Can you make a key if I have lost all copies?
In many cases, yes. We cut and program a new key from the vehicle details once ownership is confirmed.
Do you program key fobs?
Yes, for many makes and models. Tell us the year, make and model so we can confirm before the visit.
Will opening my car damage it?
We use vehicle entry tools designed to avoid damage. We will explain the method before starting.
