35th Ave Locksmith Can Duplicate Your Car Keys

When locksmiths were first being trained to make locks and keys as a trade there is no way for them to have imagined the complex and sophisticated locking mechanisms that a car locksmith would service today. 

Prior to the advent of machines to mass produce locks and keys in a short amount of time, locksmith would make each individual lock by hand nearly ensuring that every lock and key set they made would be slightly different than the other. Of course, the amount of fine detail that they were able to put into locks was extremely limited. In this day and age we now see locks which also correspond with computers, making them some of the most secure locks that have ever been developed. To service a lock as a car locksmith, there is a great deal of training that was be completed so that you can fully understand the complex systems of the ignition, key and locks.

Before the 2000’s it was still relative easy for a locksmith to make a duplicate vehicle key because all that had to be done by the car locksmith was to make the correct cuts on a blank key. However this changed with transponder keys which have changed the way that car key security works. A transponder key is a vehicle key which, in addition to having the correct cuts, has a transponder chip inside of the key head itself. This chip communicates with the car’s on board computer allowing for the vehicle to be started. Without the correct transponder chip inside of the key then the computer inside of the vehicle will not allow it to start. This adds extra security to your vehicle because the code and machine that are necessary to program the key to the vehicle are only able to be purchased by licensed locksmiths, keeping these tools away from possible criminals.

Sometimes issues can come up with the transponder key’s chip itself which would require it being reprogrammed to the vehicle. A sign that this would be the issue is that your key is still turning in the ignition but the vehicle does not turn on or start. If you have the right car locksmith available in your area then having this service completed can take absolutely no time at all.

When most people think of a car locksmith it is generally for when they have locked themselves outside of their vehicle with the keys inside. The key for when this happens is to be prepared. Have the number of a trusted locksmith available in your phone so that you know you will get quick service and not be ripped off with unfair pricing. A great way to find a locksmith you trust if you have not had to use a locksmith before, would be to ask friends and family members who have had to call a mobile car locksmith to get some ideas. The worst possible thing to happen is to be unprepared and then have difficulty finding a 24 hour car locksmith near you. Some locksmith companies charge extremely high prices for emergency calls, it is important to ask if pricing differs depending on timing when you first begin to research the locksmith company that you are going to choose.

If you are calling a locksmith service in a nonemergency way there are several measures you can take to ensure that you will not be overcharged and that you are receiving a fair deal. When calling to the locksmith make sure that you ask for a total price with all fees included. Some locksmiths may try to hide fees until they arrive on scene, however if you ask in advance you are able to avoid this entirely. In addition to asking for the total price, ask if the company will match competitors pricing. Many mobile car locksmiths will do this and it can result in huge savings for you
