Car Lockouts, Keys & Fobs in Fairfax, VA
Car Lockout Service in Fairfax
Keys locked in the car or trunk? We use professional entry tools designed to open vehicles without damaging the door, window, or weather stripping. Most lockouts take only a few minutes once we arrive, and we can also open trunks and fuel doors.
Car Key Replacement and Key Fob Programming
Dealerships often need days—and sometimes a tow—to replace a lost key. We cut and program replacement keys on-site for most makes and models, including:
- Transponder (chip) keys
- Remote-head keys and flip keys
- Key fobs and keyless-entry remotes
- Spare keys, so you are never down to just one
Lost every key? In most cases we can create a new one from the vehicle itself. Have your ID and registration handy so we can verify ownership before we begin.
Ignition Repair and Broken Key Extraction
A key that won’t turn, a worn ignition cylinder, or a key snapped off in the door lock are common problems, especially in older vehicles. We extract broken keys, repair or replace ignition cylinders, and cut a new key to match—often saving you a trip to the dealer.

Simple Ways to Avoid Car Key Emergencies
- Keep a spare. A second programmed key costs far less than an all-keys-lost visit.
- Replace fob batteries early. If your remote’s range drops or it works only intermittently, swap the battery before it fails.
- Don’t force a sticking key. A key that binds in the ignition or door is a warning sign—have it checked before it breaks off.
- Watch for worn edges. Keys wear down over time; cutting a fresh copy from a code keeps them turning smoothly.
Car Locksmith FAQs
How long does car key replacement take?
Most replacement keys are cut and programmed during the same visit. Timing depends on the make, model, and key type, and we’ll give you an estimate when you call.
Is a locksmith cheaper than the dealership?
In many cases, yes—and you avoid having the car towed to the dealer. We quote the price before starting, so you can compare.
Can you make a key if I’ve lost all my car keys?
Usually, yes. Because we’re mobile, you don’t need to tow the car anywhere—we generate the new key on-site after confirming ownership.
