Car Keys We Offer
Lost Car Keys
If there are no working keys to a vehicle, we can create a new car key at the vehicle’s location. The most common process we use is picking open the door lock and decoding the lock. After that, we use a progression program to solve for the remaining cuts in the ignition and retrieve the key code. Once we have a working key for the ignition, we program the keys by connecting a computer to the vehicle.
Car Key Replacement
In instances where there is a working key for the vehicle, we will create a new spare key or key fob. This process consists of us copying the cuts of the current key. Often times we will originate dull or worn out keys and cut the new key back to its original state. We can also add a remote key if the vehicle is equipped with keyless entry.
Car Unlocking
The Key Man unlocks vehicles when the keys are locked inside, we can pick open the door lock to unlock it. This process usually takes just a few minutes once we arrive. Many locksmiths and roadside assistance services will unlock the vehicle by using a wedge or airbag in the door to press the unlock button. This can often times damage the vehicle which is why we prefer to pick open the door lock.
Car Key Repair
Broken car keys are no match for us, we can refurbish it back to new. For car key repair services, we use the internal components of a key and replace the outer shell of the broken one. We then cut the new shell’s blade back to it’s original cuts to create a like-new key. This service can often be used if the buttons no longer work or if the blade has broken off the head of the key.
Car Key Programming
The Key Man provides programming services for transponder keys, smart keys and key fobs. We provide these services for keys that we provide or if you bring your own. This process consists of us connecting a computer to the vehicle and pairing the key to the ECU. If you’re bringing your own key, please me mindful that many keys look identical to one another but use different internal components. Please be sure you have cross referenced the part numbers with your original key. We can program almost any key in about thirty minutes or less.
Car Key Cutting
We cut keys using advanced cutting machines. This service consists of us reading the original cuts from the working key and copying them onto a new key. If the cuts on your original are worn out or dull, our cutting machine will compensate for the wear and originate the key. If there is no working keys to the vehicle we can decode the door lock to create a new working key. We can also cut a new key by the VIN of the vehicle.
