Pricing explained

Cost depends on three factors. The first is the key type, from simple metal blades to encrypted proximity fobs. The second is the work required to originate a key when none exists, which may involve decoding or data access. The third is programming complexity that varies by brand and model year. We provide a price range on the phone, confirm after inspection, and proceed only when you approve. If you need additional copies, we can cut and program them during the same visit at a better unit price.

What to have ready

• Vehicle make, model, year, and trim level if known.
• VIN from the dashboard or door jamb to help with code reference when applicable.
• Photo ID and proof of ownership for security.
• Any working keys or fobs, even if intermittent, which can speed programming.
• Details on aftermarket alarms or remote starts that may influence procedures.

Prevention and everyday tips

• Keep a labeled but discreet spare with a trusted person or in a secure lockbox.
• Replace fob batteries annually. Weak batteries cause random failures and can desync remotes.
• Test the mechanical key in the driver door at least once a month to ensure the cylinder stays free.
• Avoid heavy keychains that stress the ignition over time.
• If a key begins to stick, cut a fresh copy from code rather than duplicating wear.
