How to replace a car key? And how our service can help you?

1. Call Us Or Submit For a Quote: We will need the make, model, and year of your car. This information is important for us to ensure that the replacement key is compatible with your specific vehicle.

2. Verify Ownership: Should all keys to the vehicle have become lost, we will require proof of ownership before proceeding with the key replacement. This precaution ensures that replacement keys are provided only to authorized individuals / owners.

3. Key Cutting Process: For traditional metal keys or those with mechanical components, the locksmith will utilize key cutting machines to create an accurate replica of the original key. This process involves shaping the key to match the unique grooves and notches required for your specific vehicle.

4. Transponder Key Programming: If your vehicle uses a transponder key (a key with an embedded microchip), the locksmith will need to program the new key to communicate with your car’s immobilizer system. This ensures that the replacement key is recognized and allows the engine to start.

5. Test the Replacement Key: Before finalizing the process, the locksmith will test the replacement key to ensure it functions correctly. This includes verifying that the key can lock and unlock the doors, as well as start the engine. Testing ensures that the replacement key seamlessly integrates with your vehicle’s security system.

6. Payment and Documentation: Once the replacement key is successfully created and tested, we take payment on the job completion. This can be either, cash, card or via BAC’s.
