Frequently Asked Questions

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.

Do you repair remote head keys?

Yes. Honda and Toyota remote head repair is one of our most common jobs — a new shell, buttons or blade often costs far less than a new key.

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.

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 fast can you get to me?

Most calls are reached within the hour. We give you an arrival window when you call.

What if I have lost every key and have no spare?

We can still make a new key. With your ID and the registration or title, we originate a key from the VIN or the locks and program it to the car.

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 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.

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.

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.
