Locked out, lost your keys, or dealing with a broken ignition? Bring it in or we come to you. Transponder programming, key cutting, and ignition repair — for nearly every make and model.
Worn, jammed, or damaged ignitions repaired or replaced — most makes and models, in-shop or mobile.
Door lock repair, replacement, and rekeying for cars, trucks, and SUVs.
Lost a key? Bought used? We rekey your vehicle's locks so old keys won't work anymore.
Modern keys with chips, fobs, and remotes — programmed and tested.
Locked out in a parking lot? We come to you and get you back in your car without damage.
Lost your only car key? Locked it inside? Before you call the dealership and wait days for an appointment, call the shop on Colfax Street. We cut and program transponder keys, laser-cut keys, and remote fobs for most makes and models — usually for considerably less than a dealer visit, and often the same day.
Modern car keys are computers: the chip inside has to be programmed to your vehicle before it will start the engine. We have the equipment to do that programming in-house, which is why a locksmith can replace a "dealer-only" key. Bring your car to our downtown Concord shop, or have our mobile technician come to you anywhere in Concord and surrounding areas.
We also repair worn ignitions that grind, stick, or refuse to turn — replacing an ignition cylinder is routine work for us and far cheaper than letting a dealership replace the whole assembly.
Don't pry the door or break a window — modern weather seals and wiring make DIY entry expensive. Call (925) 689-1534 and wait somewhere safe.
We can originate a new key from the vehicle itself — no existing key needed. Bring your registration and photo ID; we verify ownership before originating any automotive key.
The cheapest insurance against a lockout is a spare cut before you need it. Stop by the shop — most duplicates are done while you wait.

If your business runs vehicles, you know the math: originating a single dealer key for a work truck can cost a fortune and a day of downtime. We cut and program keys and fobs for fleet and commercial vehicles — including push-to-start (proximity) systems — so you keep spares on hand and trucks on the road.
Extra and replacement keys for vans, trucks, and fleet vehicles — cut and programmed on-site or in our shop, usually for far less than the dealership.
Lost or need a spare for a keyless push-to-start vehicle? We program proximity fobs for most makes and models.
The cheapest insurance against a stranded truck is a spare cut in advance. We help fleets get ahead of lost-key downtime. Proof of ownership required.
