To get you back on the road as quickly as possible, please have the following details ready when you call:
  1. Vehicle Make, Model, and Year (e.g., 2018 Ford F-150 or 2021 Honda Civic).
  2. Exact Location of the vehicle.
  3. Key Type (e.g., standard key, flip key, or push-to-start fob).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How much does a replacement car key cost compared to the dealership?

In most cases, Mr. Locksmith is significantly cheaper and much faster than going to a primary dealership. Dealerships often require you to tow your stranded vehicle to their service bay and wait days for a key to be ordered. Our fully equipped mobile locksmith units come directly to your location, cutting and programming your new key on the spot for a fraction of the total hassle and expense.

What is “All-Keys-Lost” (AKL) service?

An All-Keys-Lost (AKL) situation occurs when you have lost every existing key to your vehicle and do not have a spare or master key to duplicate. Unlike simple key duplication, AKL requires a specialized locksmith to decode your door or ignition lock cylinder from scratch, generate a new mechanical key blade using high-precision key cutting code machines, and program a new transponder chip or smart fob directly into your vehicle’s immobilizer memory bank.

Can you program transponder chip keys and push-to-start smart fobs?

Yes! Our mobile units carry advanced, factory-grade diagnostic programming tools, EEPROM programmers, and OBD-II immobilizer software. We can pair replacement transponder chip keys, high-security laser-cut keys, keyless entry remotes, and proximity push-to-start smart fobs for almost all major vehicle brands, including North American, Asian, and European high-security models.

Do I need to tow my car to your shop if I lose my keys?

No towing required! Mr. Locksmith provides 100% mobile automotive service. We drive directly to your location—whether you are stranded in a parking lot, stuck at home, or on the roadside—to decode your locks, cut your new key, and complete all transponder programming on-site.

Will making a new key erase my old lost keys from the vehicle?

Yes, upon request! When we program a new key or fob into your vehicle’s immobilizer system, we can clear and wipe all previously programmed keys from the car’s ECU memory. This ensures that if your lost or stolen key is ever found by someone else, it will no longer be able to electronically unlock or start your car.

What information do I need to provide when calling for service?

To get you back on the road as quickly as possible, please have the following details ready when you call:
