Frequently Asked Questions — Car Key Making in Chico
Do you program transponder keys and smart fobs?
Yes — we have professional-grade programming equipment for transponder keys and smart key fobs. Our technicians can program keys for most makes and models from 1995 to present.
Can you make keys for luxury and European vehicles?
Absolutely. We make keys for BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Lexus, and other luxury brands. Our equipment handles the advanced programming these vehicles require.
Is it cheaper to get a car key from a locksmith than a dealership?

Most car keys are cut and programmed in 20-45 minutes. Our mobile locksmith vans carry key blanks for all major makes, so we handle everything on-site at your Chico location.
What if my key fob is working but the physical key isn\’t?
We can cut a new physical/emergency key blade for your fob while keeping the electronic programming intact. This is a quick and affordable fix.
