Where we are straight with you
This is where honesty matters: we do not make keys for every vehicle. Some newer, luxury, and European models require dealer-only equipment or a tow to the dealer, and certain all-keys-lost jobs are beyond mobile programming. We check your year, make, and model before booking and tell you plainly when the dealer is your only route. Around North Hollywood, we would rather tell you this up front than surprise you on site.
How we keep it straight
If you are in North Hollywood and stuck, call and we will talk through your options before anyone commits to anything.
Identification and proof of ownership or authorization come first. It is not about doubting you; it is about a locksmith only ever opening doors for the people entitled to them.
We do not post a flat price here because the real number depends on the hardware, the situation, and the time of day. You get a clear quote before any work starts, and the total in writing before we begin.
Our arrival estimate is tied to our actual location and the roads that day. If something changes it, we tell you instead of leaving you guessing.

Questions people ask
Can you make a key for my car on site?
For many makes, yes — we cut and program at the car in North Hollywood. Tell us the year, make, and model and we will confirm before booking whether yours is on-site or dealer-only.
How long does making a car key take?
Many on-site jobs are done in one visit, but it varies by make and whether any key remains. We give you a realistic read when you tell us the vehicle.
