Emergency Lost Car Keys – Licensed & Insured
A new key made from your VIN when every key is lost. Upfront quotes on the phone and a technician who comes to you.
Emergency Lost Car Keys from Car Key Locksmith means making a brand-new working key when every key is gone — even with no spare and no original to copy — by a mobile automotive locksmith that answers the phone 24/7.
It is a home service for your car: you stay put, and the technician comes to you. Need a 24 hour lockout service? Ours runs every night of the year.

Mobile Service, Island-Wide
Nassau County is home base, and we regularly work in Glen Head, Westbury and Hempstead. We also cover Queens and much of Suffolk County.
Specialty Locksmith Work
Besides lost car key replacement, our Nassau County technicians handle:
- Mobile locksmith and auto locksmith service at your car — no tow
- Home and house lockouts too — we open front doors and change locks
- Car lockout and auto lockout service — damage-free entry, usually within the hour
- Honda laser cut keys and Acura keys cut and programmed
- Honda remote head repair — a new shell, buttons or blade for a worn remote-head key
- Remote repair and car key repair, often far cheaper than a new key
What the Visit Includes
On a typical visit we can:
- A spare made at the same visit for much less than a second emergency call
- Ownership checked with ID and registration, for your protection
- Remote buttons paired — lock, unlock, trunk and panic
- Lost keys erased from the car's memory where supported
- The lost key erased from the car's memory where supported, so it can't start the car if someone finds it
- A new key originated from the VIN or by decoding your door lock — no original needed
Cost Factors
No two jobs are identical, which is why we quote each one on the phone first. The main factors:
- Whether the car needs its immobilizer module accessed to program an all-keys-lost key
- The type of key: basic transponder, remote-head, flip key or push-to-start smart key
- Whether you want spare keys made at the same visit
There are no hidden call-out fees: what we quote is what you pay. If anything changes once we see the job, we tell you before doing it.
From Your Call to a Finished Job
Most calls follow the same simple pattern:
- Call (516) 750-0433 with your location, the year, make and model, and whether any key still exists.
- We quote the job and give you an arrival window.
- On site we verify ownership, then cut the new key and program it to the car.
- We erase the lost keys from the car's memory where possible and test everything with you.
