Locked Out of Your Car? We Come to You
Keys shut inside, a fob that died, or a key snapped off in the door — a car lockout always happens somewhere inconvenient. We answer day and night and head straight to you, whether you are in a parking lot, a driveway or on the side of the road. We open vehicles the careful way, with the right tools instead of a slim-jim or a coat hanger, so there is no damage to your door, lock or window. In most cases you are back behind the wheel in minutes.
Car Key Replacement
Lost every key, or just want a spare so you are never stranded? We cut and supply replacement car keys to match your vehicle — basic metal keys, transponder keys and push-to-start smart keys alike — even when you have no original to copy from. Because we are mobile and buy the blanks direct, this is usually well below dealer pricing and without a tow to the dealership. Tell us the year, make and model when you call and we will come prepared.
Car Key Programming
Most cars built in the last couple of decades won’t start unless the key is electronically matched to the vehicle. Cutting the key is only half the job — the transponder or smart key then has to be programmed to your car’s immobiliser before the engine will turn over. We program transponder keys and push-to-start smart keys on site for most makes and models, using proper diagnostic tools, so your key starts the car first time.
Key Fob Replacement
When a remote or push-to-start fob cracks, gets wet, or just stops talking to the car, you do not have to pay dealer prices to put it right. We supply and program replacement fobs — lock, unlock, trunk and panic buttons, and keyless-start remotes — for most vehicles on the road in Billings. It is also the smart time to add a spare fob, so a lost or dead remote never leaves you stuck. Give us your year, make and model and we will match the right fob.
Ignition Repair & Replacement
A key that won’t turn, turns only halfway, or feels gritty in the ignition is usually a worn cylinder rather than a dead car. Left too long it can strand you, so it is worth sorting before it fails completely. If a key has snapped off in the ignition, we extract the pieces too. We repair and replace ignition cylinders and, where we can, re-key the new one to your existing key so you are not juggling two keys — and if it is past repair, we fit a replacement.
Broken Key Extraction & Spare Keys
Car keys snap — in the door, in the trunk, or right in the ignition — usually at the worst time. We remove the broken piece without damaging the lock or cylinder and cut you a fresh, accurate key so you are driving again before we pack up. While we are there, it is the easy moment to add a spare, cut and programmed to your car. One backup key in a drawer costs a fraction of an emergency callout later. Away from the car, we also take care of home lock and key work and commercial locksmith services across the area.
