Long Island City 11103 Car Locksmith FAQ
Is it cheaper than the dealer?
Usually, yes — and faster, because there is no tow, no parts order and no appointment. You get the price before we come out.
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.
Do I need to prove the car is mine?
Yes. Once the car is open we check your ID against the registration or title — it protects you as much as us.
Will unlocking my car damage it?
No. We use the same air-wedge and long-reach tools dealerships use, which open the door without touching the lock, the paint or the weather stripping.
How fast can you get to me?
Most lockout calls are reached within the hour. We give you an arrival window when you call, so you are never left guessing.
Do you come to me in Long Island City, NY 11103?
Yes — Long Island City, NY 11103 is part of our regular route. The technician comes to the car, wherever it is parked.
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.
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 also handle home and business lockouts?
Yes. Along with car lockouts we open houses, apartments and commercial doors, and change or rekey locks.
