Lost your car keys or need a replacement? We cut and program replacement keys on-site at your location across Dallas — transponder keys, smart keys, push-to-start, and laser-cut. Available 24/7, including all-keys-lost situations.
The type of key your vehicle uses determines the equipment and process required. When you call, tell us your year, make, and model — we'll confirm what's needed before we arrive.
Most vehicles made after the mid-1990s use a transponder key with an embedded chip that communicates with the vehicle's immobilizer. We cut the blade and program the chip to match your vehicle on-site.
Push-to-start vehicles use a proximity smart key. We supply and program replacement smart keys on-site for most makes and models, including situations where no working key is present. See our key fob programming service →
Some vehicles — including many European makes and certain domestic models — use a laser-cut or sidewinder blade. We carry laser-cutting equipment for on-site service.
Older vehicles without a transponder use a mechanically-cut key. These are typically the quickest and most straightforward replacement.
Losing every key to a vehicle is more complex than cutting a spare — the vehicle's immobilizer needs to be reprogrammed, not just a new key cut. We carry the programming equipment for all-keys-lost situations for most makes and models. Call us with your year, make, and model and we'll confirm compatibility and pricing before we arrive.
When no working key is present, we connect to your vehicle's system and program a new key from scratch. This requires specialized equipment beyond standard key cutting.
If you have a working key and need a spare cut and programmed, this is the most straightforward situation. We cut and program the spare on-site in a single visit.
In many cases, your vehicle's key code can be looked up by VIN, allowing us to cut a replacement blade without a working key present. Proof of ownership is required.
Some newer vehicles use manufacturer-level security systems that require dealer authorization or tools we cannot replicate. We'll tell you honestly before arriving whether your vehicle is one of them.
This tells us what equipment and key blanks to bring. Different vehicles require different hardware — having this ready speeds up the call and our preparation.
Your VIN is on the driver-side dashboard (visible through the windshield) or on your registration. Having it ready speeds up compatibility confirmation and, in some cases, allows key code lookup.
For all-keys-lost situations and VIN-based key cutting, we require proof that you own the vehicle. Your title, registration, or insurance card showing your name and the VIN is sufficient.
If you have no working key, getting the vehicle to a dealership may require towing. Our mobile service comes to your location — parking lot, driveway, or roadside — and handles applicable replacement services on-site.
For most applicable key replacement jobs, our pricing is approximately 40–50% less than typical dealer pricing. This varies by vehicle make, key type, and service required. We give you an exact quote before we arrive.
Dealership key service may require scheduling or towing when no working key is available. Our mobile locksmith service is available 24/7 and comes to your location.
Call us with your year, make, and model. We'll confirm we can service your vehicle and give you an upfront price before we arrive.
