Thank you to the crew, especially Gilberto for taking car of cutting and programming a new set of car keys for me. Not just that, just when we thought the new remote wasn't working, one of the crew had an ah ha moment and fixed the problem. Efficient, great communication and fair pricing. But most of all, was willing to provide the best help.

Gilberto was amazing! Very fast service and thrilled that they could drive to my house to fix my car onsite. My key was worn and couldn't turn the ignition anymore. Gilberto was able to fix it in under 2 hours and even showed me the mechanical process after because I was interested. He also showed me that the new key can now unlock my car from both sides (I haven't been able to do that since I got the car 7 years ago). Very impressed, feel like I have a new car now! Thank you!!!

FAQs

locksmith common questions

Professional Questions:

A key can become stuck in the ignition for several reasons, including a worn-out key, a damaged ignition cylinder, or an issue with the car’s steering wheel lock. Sometimes, debris or dirt inside the ignition can also prevent the key from turning or being removed. Our technicians can diagnose the issue and determine whether the key or the ignition mechanism needs repair.
First, ensure your car is in the “Park” position if it has an automatic transmission, as many vehicles have a safety feature preventing the key from turning unless it is properly engaged. If the steering wheel is locked, try gently turning it side to side while attempting to turn the key. If the problem persists, avoid forcing the key as it may break. We can assess the ignition and repair or replace any faulty components as needed.
Yes, repeatedly forcing a stuck key can cause damage to the ignition cylinder, leading to more costly repairs. If the key is stuck, it’s best to have a professional inspect the issue before any damage worsens. Our team uses specialized tools to safely remove stuck keys without harming the ignition.
We use a damage-free approach that involves identifying the cause of the issue before proceeding. Depending on the situation, we may use a lubricant to ease movement, manipulate the ignition components, or utilize a key extraction tool. If necessary, we may also inspect the ignition cylinder for internal damage and provide repair options.
Yes, if your key has broken inside the ignition, we have specialized extraction tools that allow us to remove the broken piece without harming the ignition system. If the ignition itself is damaged, we can repair or replace it. We can also cut and program a new key for your vehicle on-site.
Yes, a low or dead battery can sometimes prevent the key from being removed. Many modern vehicles use an electronic ignition system that requires battery power to release the key. If you suspect this is the cause, we can check your battery and jump-start your car if necessary before diagnosing further issues.
Not necessarily. In many cases, the issue can be resolved by repairing the existing ignition cylinder rather than replacing it. We always assess the condition of the ignition first to determine the most cost-effective and efficient solution. If replacement is needed, we ensure it is done quickly and correctly.
The time required depends on the cause of the problem. In most cases, we can remove a stuck key within a few minutes. If there is an underlying issue with the ignition, repairs can typically be completed within an hour. Our priority is to resolve the problem efficiently while ensuring the longevity of your ignition system.
