Automotive Locksmith Services

Usually between $55-95 depending on your car type, and that's the same whether you're locked out at 8am or 8pm. We don't do surge pricing for downtown traffic or late nights. Most car lockouts take us 20 minutes or less once we arrive. Finding parking on Congress Ave might take longer than getting you back in your car! Call (512) 354-0025 and we'll give you an exact quote based on your car's make and model.

Yes - typically 40-50% cheaper, and we come to you anywhere in Austin. Dealerships charge premium prices and make you wait days for parts. We have the equipment to cut and program most car keys on-site, usually in 30-45 minutes. Whether you're at home in Allandale or at work in the Domain, we'll meet you there. Not every car key can be done outside the dealer (looking at you, some new BMWs), but we'll be honest about what we can handle.

Absolutely. This is actually one of our specialties. We come to wherever your car is parked (Zilker, your driveway, wherever), verify ownership, and make you a brand new key from scratch. We can cut and program transponder keys, smart keys, and key fobs for most makes and models right there on the spot. It usually costs $150-350 depending on your car, which beats a tow to the dealership plus their fees any day.

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. Making a spare key when you have the original costs $75-200. Replacing your only key after you lose it? $150-350 and a whole lot of stress. It's like insurance - boring to buy, amazing to have when you need it. We can come to your house, work, or meet you at Epoch Coffee - wherever works. Takes about 30 minutes and future-you will thank present-you.

Usually it's worn ignition wafers (the internal pins) or a worn key - sometimes both. After years of Texas heat and daily use, these parts wear down. We can often repair the ignition cylinder without replacing the whole thing, or rekey it to match a new key. If it's totally shot, we can replace it. Either way, we do it at your location - no tow truck needed. Most ignition repairs run $150-400 depending on what's needed.
