Need a spare key? Our duplicate car key service covers transponder keys, remote fobs, and mechanical blades. Modern vehicles often require chip programming to pair new keys with the car’s immobilizer. Our locksmiths have the training and equipment to handle this on-site, with no need to tow your car.
We duplicate keys for brands including Ford, Honda, Toyota, Chevy, Dodge, Nissan, BMW, Lexus, and more. It’s also a smart idea to have an extra key in case of future lockouts. We’ll show you how to verify compatibility and whether your vehicle uses a chip key, remote head key, or smart proximity key.
If you're unsure what kind of key you have, check out our guide on transponder keys or our overview on key fobs.
For vehicles that use smart keyless entry, see our section on proximity key systems. We'll help you figure out what you need and get you back on the road quickly.
Broken key in ignition? Car won't start even with the correct key? Our experts can fix or replace damaged ignitions fast. If your key turns halfway or not at all, it could be due to a worn cylinder, jammed wafers, or a stuck steering lock pin.
We provide on-the-spot ignition repairs for most domestic and imported vehicles. No dealership delay, no towing required.
Transponder keys are anti-theft chip keys that require special programming. If you've lost your transponder key or it’s not working properly, our mobile techs can replace or reprogram it on site. We also clone keys when your ECU allows it, saving time and cost.
We work with onboard diagnostics to ensure your new key communicates correctly with your vehicle’s immobilizer system. If you have a smart key with push-start functionality, we can help with that too.
Car key fobs can wear out, stop transmitting, or break entirely. We replace fob batteries, repair broken solder joints, or supply and program a brand-new fob if needed.
Learn more about how key fobs work and common problems in our guide on remote key fobs.
If your car uses a proximity key and it stops responding, we can diagnose the signal or replace the fob. These keys use RF communication and require precision programming. Whether your push-to-start system fails or the vehicle won’t recognize the key, we can help.
