Transponder Key Programming

Not every locksmith comes to you. Car Key Locksmith does — that is the whole idea. Our transponder key programming brings key blanks, cutting machines and dealer-level programming tools to your car, day or night.

Cost Factors

A few things decide the final figure:

• Whether the key also has remote buttons to program
• Whether a working key is available or all keys are lost
• How many keys you need
• The transponder type your car uses

Rooted in Nassau County

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.

Plenty has changed in the trade since 2001 — new keys, new locks, new technology. We have kept up with all of it, so you get current equipment and current know-how.

A Few Pointers

• Stay with the vehicle if it is safe to do so.
• Keep your ID and registration handy; we verify ownership before every job.
• If a key breaks in the lock, leave the piece in and call us rather than digging at it.

Step by Step

Here is what happens, start to finish:

1. Call (516) 750-0433 with the year, make and model and what is happening when you turn the key.
2. We quote the job and confirm we carry the right transponder.
3. On site we cut the key and program its chip to your car's immobilizer.
4. We start the car with every key and test the remote functions before leaving.

Domestic, Asian and European Makes

From older basic metal keys to the latest push-to-start smart keys, we cut and program keys for Infiniti, Acura, Volkswagen, Volvo, Dodge and GMC and more. See our Toyota, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep & Ram and Land Rover & Jaguar pages for brand details.
