Key Programming in Seattle — Jacobson Locksmith

Car Key Replacement & Key Fob Programming in Seattle

Q: I lost my car keys and have no spare. Can you still help?

Yes. We make a new key from the vehicle itself, cut the blade and program the chip or fob to your car on site, so you do not need the original, a spare or a tow to the dealership.

Q: Do I have to go to the dealer for a new key?

No. A licensed automotive locksmith can cut and program keys for most vehicles, usually faster and at your location instead of a service bay.

Q: I lost all my keys. Can you still make one?

Yes. All-keys-lost is one of our most common calls. We generate a key from the vehicle's lock or code and program it to the immobilizer on site.

Q: What types of keys do you program?

Standard transponder keys, remote-head and flip keys, separate fobs, and push-to-start smart keys. If you are unsure which you have, tell us the model and we will know.

Q: Can you delete my lost key so it no longer starts the car?

On most vehicles, yes. We can erase all previously programmed keys so only the new ones work.

Q: How much does key programming cost?

Programming starts at $69. The total depends on the key type and vehicle; we quote it before we come out.

Modern car keys are small computers. A transponder chip, a remote fob or a proximity smart key has to be paired to your vehicle's immobilizer before the engine will start, and the dealership is not the only place that can do it. Jacobson Locksmith brings professional programming equipment to you and pairs the new key on the spot.

We program keys for most domestic, Asian and European makes: standard transponder keys, remote-head keys, flip keys, separate fobs and push-to-start smart keys. Whether you lost every key or just want a spare before you do, we can cut and code a new one at your driveway or office parking lot.

Because we come to you with a full-size mobile shop, you do not need to tow the car anywhere. Most jobs are finished in under an hour.

What’s included:

Transponder chip keys cut and programmed
