Auto Locksmith in Sacramento

The problem is with a vehicle, and the vehicle may not be drivable. Call (916) 244-3934.

Licensed, insured and bonded. California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services License No. LCO 6830. Open 24 hours, 7 days a week. Proof of ownership is required before any lock is opened.

Automotive work is mobile by nature: the vehicle usually cannot come to you, so the equipment goes to the vehicle.

What the job involves

  • Opening locked vehicles without damaging the door, glass or weather seal
  • Cutting and programming replacement keys when every key is lost
  • Transponder, chip and VAT key programming
  • Remote and proximity fob pairing

  • Ignition cylinder repair and replacement

What to have ready when you call

  • Year, make and model, and the trim if you know it
  • Whether you have any working key at all
  • Where the vehicle is — street, garage level, tow yard or private lot
  • Registration, title or insurance showing the vehicle is yours

Honest limits

Some vehicles need the immobilizer data reading from a module, and a small number of makes require a dealer-only procedure. Where that is the case you are told rather than charged for an attempt that cannot succeed.

Common questions

Can you make a key with no original?

Yes, in most cases. Keys can be originated from the vehicle itself rather than copied, then programmed on site.

Is a locksmith cheaper than the dealership?

Usually, and it avoids towing, because the work happens where the vehicle already is. The exact figure depends on the key type and vehicle.

What proof do I need for a car key?

Photo identification plus registration, title or insurance in your name for that vehicle. This is not optional.
