- Car Opening
Whether an older, highly valuable collector car or modern smart key car, we can open your car without damage and in a timely professional manner.
- Automotive Key Replacement
Modern automotive key locksmiths must maintain an extensive inventory of OEM, or original equipment manufacturer keys that will program successfully to your vehicle in situations where all keys are lost. If the company you call doesn't have the key in stock, call us because we work hard to make sure we can get you back on the road. Automotive transponder chip keys are not all the same! It is a challenge for us to keep in stock the one key you need when there are litterally thousands of possible keys required to handle lost transponder chip keys for all models.
- Spare Transponder Chip Keys
Many times a spare key can be made for you by duplicating, or cloning the value of the chip in your existing working chip key in addition to cutting of the key blade. We utilize specialized equipment such as Miraclone and Ilco's RW4 Plus to clone chip keys or transponder keys onto a key that has been properly cut by us for a fraction of the cost of the original key. Not all car keys can be cloned, but many can and we will tell you if cloning is an affordable chip key replacement or spare chip key solution. Duplicate keys are almost always much cheaper than originals.
- Automotive Immobilizer Bypass
Knowledge of modern automotive immobilizer systems is required to program keys to vehicles in "all keys lost" situations. We are trained in and posess the equipment required to troubleshoot auto immobilizer systems. Auto immobilizer system bypass knowledge is often required but immobilizer system integrity will not be sacrificed. Program your key and keep your vehicle secure from theft or unauthorized use.
- Auto Ignition Rebuilds
Call us before changing your auto igntion lock on your car. Your best solution for ignition lock failure is often rebuilding of the existing lock for far less than replacement of auto ignitions. By continuing to use the keys you already have programmed to the vehicle, you can maintain use of only one key for the whole car and not be stuck without 1 key that works all your car locks! if a mechanic or someone changed the ignition without matching that key to the car door, you will be carrying 2 different keys for the car or possibly only be carrying the one to operate it and not have a key to lock the car with. These are important considerations to make when you have an automotive ignition lock failure.
- Auto Lock Rekeys
Rekeying of automotive locks is the changing of the wafers in the locking cylinders on the vehicle, NOT simply replacing the keys as many people (and competitors) believe! We can set all your locks to work on your existing keys. Auto key replacement is replacing a key when you have lost a spare or have no key at all, not a rekey or rekeying of the car locks themselves.
