Emergency Auto Key Copy Since 2001

Since 2001 we have learned that drivers want three things: a fair price, a realistic arrival time and work that lasts. That is how we approach car key duplication in Inwood.

The technician checks ownership, explains the options and gets to work at your car.

Pricing, Explained

What we consider when we quote:

  • How many spares you want
  • The type of key being copied (basic, transponder, remote-head or smart key)
  • Whether the key needs programming as well as cutting

Call (516) 750-0433 for an exact quote — it takes a minute. Call (516) 750-0433 with your year, make and model for an exact quote. It is usually less than the dealer, and there is no tow to pay for.

What We Do On Site

For emergency auto key copy, that usually means:

  • Work done at your car — at home, at work or at the roadside
  • Several spares at once for family members and fleets
  • Transponder chips programmed so the spare actually starts the car
  • Valet keys that open the doors but not the trunk or glovebox, where available
  • Remote buttons paired — lock, unlock, trunk and panic
  • Spare keys cut and programmed at the same visit

How the Visit Works

Most calls follow the same simple pattern:

  1. Call (516) 750-0433 with the year, make and model and the type of key you have now.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I have ready when I call?

Your location, the year, make and model, and your ID with the registration or title for when the technician arrives.

Which areas do you cover?

All of Nassau County, much of Suffolk County and Queens, including JFK Airport, Jones Beach, Resorts World Casino and UBS Arena.

Can you cut laser cut keys?

Yes. We cut laser cut (sidewinder) keys on site, including Honda, Acura, GM, Toyota and Lexus laser cut keys, and program them to the car.

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.

Do you repair remote head keys?

Yes. Honda and Toyota remote head repair is one of our most common jobs — a new shell, buttons or blade often costs far less than a new key.

Do I need to bring the car to you?

No. We are a mobile locksmith: the technician comes to your car at home, at work or at the roadside.

Can you make a spare key at the same visit?

Yes, and it is the best time to do it — a spare made now costs far less than an emergency replacement later.
