A Local Business You Can Trust
Car Key Locksmith is a local business, not a national call center. Since 2001 we have answered our own phones, quoted our own jobs and sent our own technicians.
Getting a Quote
Here is what moves the price up or down:
- 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
- Whether you want spare keys made at the same visit
We would rather give you an honest number on the phone than surprise you on arrival.

Our coverage runs from Syosset, Valley Stream and Cedarhurst out across Long Island and into Queens. Not sure if we reach you? Call (516) 750-0433.
Lost Car Key Replacement: What We Do
- Night, weekend and holiday calls, with the quote always given first
- A new key originated from the VIN or by decoding your door lock — no original needed
- Keys tested in the doors, ignition and trunk before we leave
- Remote functions paired: lock, unlock, trunk and panic
- A spare made at the same visit for much less than a second emergency call
- The lost key erased from the car's memory where supported, so it can't start the car if someone finds it

Yes. With your ID and registration we originate a key from the VIN or by decoding the lock, then program it to your car — no original key needed.
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.
Do you offer same day lost car keys 24/7?
Yes. Our 24 Hour Emergency line is answered day and night, including holidays. Call (516) 750-0433.

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.
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.
