Clear quote upfront, no sales call afterwards

Yes. An all-keys-lost job takes longer than a duplicate because the key has to be originated from the vehicle itself, cut to the lock, and then paired to the immobilizer. Have your ID and proof that the car is yours ready — ownership is verified before any key is programmed.

Yes. We are open on weekends and handle 24/7 emergency response. Lockouts, broken keys and dead ignitions do not wait for business hours, and same-day service is available. Call and describe the situation so the right tools go out with the tech.

We give upfront pricing. On the call we ask for the year, make and model, and what happened — lockout, lost key, fob not responding, ignition that will not turn. That tells us which key type and which programming path the car needs, and you hear the number before anyone starts.

It can be either, and the check is straightforward. A worn key with rounded cuts often still works in the door but fails at the ignition. If a freshly cut key behaves the same way, the wear is inside the lock cylinder — worn wafers, a tired spring, or debris from a heavy keychain pulling on the cylinder. The tech tests both before recommending a repair or a replacement.

Those are two different systems. The remote handles locks over radio. Starting depends on the transponder chip talking to the immobilizer. So a fob can still open the car while the chip pairing is lost or the chip has failed, leaving you stuck. We test the chip, reprogram it if needed, and check the receiver side too.
