Why Rekey Your Locks When You Move Into a New Home
You have no idea how many copies of your new keys are out there. Rekeying is the simple fix.
Keys locked in the car, lost or broken? Our mobile automotive locksmiths come to you in Vancouver for vehicle lockouts, key cutting, transponder and remote key programming, broken key extraction and ignition work.
Whether you're in a driveway, a parking garage or a shopping centre lot, a mobile technician can come to the vehicle. We use proper automotive entry tools to open doors and trunks with care, and we'll ask for ID and proof that the vehicle is yours before opening it.
Most modern vehicles use transponder keys or remote fobs that must be programmed to the car. We cut and program many makes and models on site, which can save a tow to the dealer. Coverage varies by vehicle, so have your year, make and model (and VIN if possible) ready when you call and we'll confirm whether we can make your key.
A key that won't turn, an ignition that sticks or a key snapped in the door are common signs of wear. We extract broken keys, diagnose worn cylinders and repair or replace ignition switches where the vehicle allows. If a repair needs dealer-only parts or programming, we'll tell you before you spend anything.
For many vehicles, yes. We'll need proof of ownership and the vehicle details. Some models require dealer equipment; we'll tell you on the phone if that's the case.
It often is, and you avoid towing, but it depends on the vehicle and key type. Ask for a quote with your vehicle details so you can compare.
Don't try to start the car with the remaining piece. We can extract the broken part and cut a new key, then check whether the ignition cylinder needs attention.
