What's included

On-site, on the first visit.

Everything we need is already on the truck. No second trip, no chasing down parts.

  • Keys that work exactly like your factory key, with the same chip inside

  • Lost your only key? We can still cut one using your car's ID number (VIN), no spare needed

  • We confirm your make and model can be done on the phone, before we dispatch

  • Spare cut while we're there at no extra trip charge

Mobile vs. shop vs. dealer

The difference is the driveway.

We come to you. Same factory-grade keys and parts, for roughly half what the dealer charges.

Why it matters

The work happens wherever you are.

The dealer route means towing the car in and waiting on a key. The truck brings the blank, the cutter, and the programmer to your driveway instead, cuts the key at the car, and programs it on the spot, usually in one visit and for roughly half the dealer's price.

The trucks run the same routes day and night, from Wilkinsburg and Monroeville to Penn Hills, across every community we cover around Pittsburgh.

Questions we get

Common questions, plainly answered.

The questions we hear most often on the phone, written down so you don't have to ask.

Can you make a car key without the original?
Yes. When every key is lost, we cut a new one using your car's ID number (the VIN), no spare needed. Have your photo ID and proof of ownership ready, and we confirm your make and model can be done on the phone before a truck moves.
How much does a replacement car key cost?
It depends on the key: a plain metal key costs less than a transponder (chip) key, and a push-to-start fob is its own job. You'll have an exact flat price on the phone before we dispatch, and it's typically around half of what the dealer charges for the same key.
Do you make keys for my car's make?
Most makes are finished on-site in one visit. Tell dispatch your year, make, and model and we confirm it can be done on the phone, before anyone drives out.
What will this actually cost?
We quote a flat price on the phone before we dispatch, based on what you tell us. That's what you pay; no hidden fees and no surprise charges at the door.
Is this a real local company, or a call center?
We're a family-run, Munhall-based business, not a national call center or a lead-gen service that resells your number. Every review you see is a public Google review from a customer we actually helped.
Will you damage my lock?
No. We pick locks, we don't drill them. Drilling is a last resort for high-security models, and we'd quote it separately before touching the cylinder.
Are you actually open at 3 a.m.?
Yes. Dispatch is staffed all night, every night of the year, and a stocked truck is ready to roll.
Do you charge extra at night or on weekends?
No. The quote you get at 3 a.m. is the same one you'd get at 3 p.m.
Do I need to get my car towed?
No, that's the point of a mobile locksmith. We open, cut, and program at your car, wherever it's parked. If a job genuinely can't be finished on-site, we'll tell you on the phone and you don't pay the trip.
How far do you go?
About 20 miles in every direction from our Munhall shop, which covers most of the Pittsburgh metro. Not sure you're inside the map? Call and we'll tell you straight.
