Fast, Local Lost Car Key Quick Replacement
From remote head repair to dealer-level programming — a new key made from your VIN when every key is lost.
Lost Car Key Quick Replacement, done at your car: that is what Car Key Locksmith offers, day and night. Lost car key replacement means making a brand-new working key when every key is gone — even with no spare and no original to copy.
Skipping the dealer usually saves time and money: no tow truck, no parts order, no appointment days away. Our vans carry laser key machines and dealer-level tools — including Ford FDRS and GM GDS2 — so newer cars are no problem. Below you will find what is included, how the visit works and what affects the price.

How We Price the Job
We quote every job upfront on the phone, so you know the price before anyone is dispatched. What the price depends on:
- Whether the car needs its immobilizer module accessed to program an all-keys-lost key
- The make — some European systems take extra equipment and time
- The type of key: basic transponder, remote-head, flip key or push-to-start smart key
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 Take Care Of
Every visit can include:
- The lost key erased from the car's memory where supported, so it can't start the car if someone finds it
- Transponder chip or smart key programmed to your car's immobilizer so it actually starts
- Honest advice on repairing versus replacing
- Remote functions paired: lock, unlock, trunk and panic
- Cars, SUVs, vans and pickups — we come to all of them
- A spare made at the same visit for much less than a second emergency call
- A new key originated from the VIN or by decoding your door lock — no original needed
Frequently Asked Questions
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.
Do you work on all makes and models?
We carry keys and programming for most cars, SUVs, vans and pickups. Call with the year, make and model and we confirm right away.
Do you offer 24 hour lockout service?
Yes. Car lockouts and auto lockouts are handled 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Call (516) 750-0433.
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.
Will my lost key still start the car?
Not after we are done, where the car supports it: we erase lost keys from the immobilizer memory so only the keys you have will start it.
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.
Will you tell me the price before you come?
Always. You get the price on the phone, before a technician is dispatched.
Is it cheaper than the dealer?
Usually, yes — and there is no tow, no parts order and no waiting days for an appointment. We give you the price before we come out.
