Common questions

Can you cut and program a transponder key?

Tell us the year, make and model and we’ll confirm we can do yours. Cutting and programming one usually costs $150 to $400.

What if I lost all my keys?

That is a different job from cutting a duplicate, since we have to get a working key set up from scratch. Ask us for a price when you call. It depends on the vehicle.

Do you do car lockouts?

Yes. A standard car lockout usually costs $75 to $200. The vehicle and the time of day decide where it lands.

Will programming a new key delete my existing keys?

Depends on the vehicle’s system. Some cars replace the whole key list when you add a new one; others simply add to it. If you want your existing keys to keep working, have them with you and we’ll check your car’s behavior before programming the new one.

What if my key fob stops working?

Try a new fob battery first. If that does not fix it, call us.
