Frequently Asked Questions
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.
Can you copy a push-to-start smart key?
Yes. We program an additional smart key to your car while your existing key is present.
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.
Will you tell me the price before you come?
Always. You get the price on the phone, before a technician is dispatched.
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.
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.
Do you work weekends and holidays?
Yes. We work every day of the year, and the price is always quoted before we come out. Call (516) 750-0433.
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 have dealer programming tools?
Yes. We use dealer-level software, including Ford FDRS and GM GDS2, to program keys on newer Ford and GM vehicles that generic tools can't reach.
Talk to a Real Person
No tow, no dealer, no waiting days. We bring the tools to your car.
