Frequently Asked Questions
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 serve Great Neck?
Yes — Great Neck, NY 11021 is part of our regular service area, along with the rest of Nassau County.
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.
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.
How long have you been in business?
Since 2001. Car Key Locksmith is based in Hewlett, NY, and has served drivers across Long Island and Queens for more than two decades.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Stuck Right Now?
Locked out of the car — or the house? We handle both, 24/7.
