King Key Locksmith San Francisco

A new car key, made where the car is parked

No spare left is not a tow truck situation in most cases. We come to the car, cut a key to the lock and program it to the vehicle.

Before we touch the lock, you know what it will cost.

Losing the last key is not a tow truck problem

People assume a car with no keys has to go to the dealer on a flatbed. In most cases it does not. We come to the car, cut a key to the lock, program it to the immobilizer and hand it to you working.

Photo identification that matches.

If the car is not in your name, tell us on the phone and we will explain what is needed.

Questions people ask

Can you make a key without the original?

For most cars, yes. We make the key to the lock and then program it to the car. Some model years are closed to anyone outside a dealership, and if yours is one of them we tell you on the phone.

How long does it take once you are there?

It depends heavily on the car. A common model can be quick, a newer European car takes longer. We give you a realistic idea when you tell us the year and model.

Will the old key still work if I find it?

It depends on the car. On some cars, programming a new key erases the old ones. On others, the old key keeps working unless it is removed. If the key was stolen rather than lost, tell us, and where the car allows it we make sure it no longer starts the car.
