What Emergency Auto Key Copy Involves

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 Merrick.

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

Getting a Quote

We quote every job upfront on the phone, so you know the price before anyone is dispatched. What the price depends on:

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

If anything changes once we see the job, we tell you before doing it. Call (516) 750-0433 for an exact quote — it takes a minute.

How the Visit Works

  1. Call (516) 750-0433 with the year, make and model and the type of key you have now.
  2. We quote the spare and an arrival time.
  3. The technician cuts the new key from your working key and programs it.
  4. You test the spare in the doors and the ignition before we leave.
  5. We leave you our number in case anything else comes up.

Before You Call

  • Stay with the vehicle if it is safe to do so.
