Frequently Asked Questions
Do you also handle home and business lockouts?
Yes. Along with car lockouts we open houses, apartments and commercial doors, and change or rekey locks.
Do you serve Garden City?
Yes — Garden City, NY 11530 is part of our regular service area, along with the rest of Nassau County.
Are your technicians licensed and insured?
Yes. We are a licensed locksmith in New York State, every technician is insured, and we verify ownership before every job.
I lost my car keys and have no spare. Can you help?
Yes. With your ID and the registration or title, we make a new key from the VIN and program it to the car — no original needed.
Why get a spare before I lose my key?
Adding a key while you still have one is far simpler and cheaper than an all-keys-lost replacement — often a fraction of the cost.
Will you tell me the price before you come?
Always. You get the price on the phone, before a technician is dispatched.
Will a hardware-store copy start my car?
Usually not. Most cars since the late 1990s need a programmed transponder chip, which a plain cut copy doesn't have.
