Locksmith Since 2001
Long Island has changed a lot since 2001; the way we work hasn't. Answer the phone, give a fair price, come to the customer, do the job properly.
Licensed, insured and local since 2001. Car Key Locksmith has grown by word of mouth among drivers who wanted honest prices and work done right the first time.
Understanding the Cost
We quote every job upfront on the phone, so you know the price before anyone is dispatched. What the price depends on:
- Whether you want spare keys made at the same visit
- The type of key: basic transponder, remote-head, flip key or push-to-start smart key
- The make — some European systems take extra equipment and time
- Whether the car needs its immobilizer module accessed to program an all-keys-lost key
Having the year, make and model ready helps us quote even faster.
What to Have Ready
- Have the year, make and model ready — it speeds up the quote.
- Note where you are parked — a cross street or landmark helps us find you fast.
- If a smart key dies, look for a hidden metal blade inside it.
- Don't force a key that won't turn; check that the steering lock isn't engaged first.

- Call (516) 750-0433 with your location, the year, make and model, and whether any key still exists.

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.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the vehicle and the key or lock involved. Call (516) 750-0433 with the year, make and model and we give you the exact price before we dispatch.
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.
