FAQs
Can you replace a key without the original?
Yes. For most vehicles we can generate a new key from the VIN and program it to your immobilizer, even if all keys are lost.
How long does it take?
Most key replacements take 30–60 minutes from arrival. Lost-all-keys jobs may take 60–90 minutes.
Do you need to tow my car?
No. We bring all the equipment to you and program on-site.
Is your key OEM quality?
We use OEM and premium aftermarket key blanks and remotes that meet OEM specs.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes — keys we program carry a workmanship guarantee. If a key we made fails to program, we make it right.
