Key Programming

We program new or replacement keys and key fobs so they communicate with your vehicle's security system. This covers transponder keys, remote fobs, and push-to-start smart keys. Get back on the road with a properly synced key that starts your car and works the locks.

Frequently asked questions

Do you need the original key to program a new one?

Not always. Many vehicles can be programmed with the right equipment even without an original key, though having one can make the process faster and cheaper.

How long does key programming take?

Most key programming jobs take around 30 to 60 minutes. More complex security systems or smart keys may take a bit longer.
