How Does a Car Key Replacement Work?

There are a few steps involved with replacing a car key or a broken car key. Typically speaking there are 3 general steps:

The most important part of getting a spare set of car keys or replacing your keys is finding out what type of key you have. With modern advances in auto manufacturing, there are several different types of keys out there.

Some key types include:

• Basic and Laser Cut Keys: These are your standard keys that turn the ignition, although laser cut keys have additional layers of security
• Transponder Keys: This type has a traditional key blade but also an electronic chip that communicates with a receiver to turn on the ignition
• Keyless or Key Fob: These keys are small handheld remotes that replace the use of a traditional key

How Much Does the Average Car Key Replacement Cost?

It is hard to average the cost of a car key replacement since there are many variables that need to be accounted for. Depending on the kind of key you have will heavily influence the cost of your replacement. The cost of a replacement car key for a basic key would be drastically different than the cost to replace and program a key fob that has more security features incorporated into the design. Other factors such as the cost of car key cutting, car key makers, and programming also need consideration.

This is why we take pride in offering affordable, competitive pricing that doesn’t compromise quality. Our techs deliver high-quality services with premium equipment at a price that won’t break your heart or bank.
