FAQ

Automotive Locksmith Questions, Answered

Can you replace my car key if I lost all of them?

Yes — all-keys-lost replacement is one of our specialties. We cut and program a brand-new key on site for 95% of vehicles, so you don't need to tow your car to a dealer.

How much cheaper than the dealership are you?

In most cases we program original keys at well below dealership pricing — and you skip the tow and the multi-day wait.

Do you program smart keys and key fobs?

Yes. We program smart keys, proximity keys, transponder keys, and remote fobs — including remotes with remote start — for nearly every make and model.

Can you make motorcycle keys?

Yes — we're one of the only locksmiths on the Central Coast that cuts motorcycle keys, including from a lost-key situation.

How fast can you unlock my car?

We typically arrive within 30 minutes to an hour anywhere in San Luis Obispo County, 24/7, and most lockouts are open within minutes of arrival.

My key snapped off in the ignition or the door — can you get it out?

Yes. Broken key extraction is routine: we remove the broken piece without damaging the lock or ignition, and cut you a replacement on the spot from the remaining half or from the vehicle's code.

Will you damage my car getting into it?

No. We use non-destructive entry tools designed for the vehicle, not slim jims and wedges that bend frames and tear weather seals. In almost every lockout you drive away with the same door, lock, and glass you arrived with.

Do you need proof the car is mine?

Yes — photo ID plus something tying you to the vehicle, like the registration or insurance card. It's a minute of your time and it's what separates a licensed locksmith from someone who will open any car for anyone.

Can you make a key with no key at all, just the VIN?

For most vehicles, yes. We generate the key from the vehicle's code and program it to the car on site, which is the whole point of all-keys-lost service — no tow, no dealership appointment.
