Car Lockout Services
Being locked out of your car is one of the most common and annoying automobile emergencies. This occurs to each and every one of us. You lock your keys in your car, lock the door before realizing that your keys are in fact on the passenger seat, or your electronic locks go out for no apparent reason. The fact remains that help needs to be called right away.
Fast response lockout services for cars are available in Pembroke Pines with a response time of about 20 to 30 minutes after you call us. Our locksmiths employ expert techniques for unlocking cars that do no damage to paint, windows, or seals when unlocking a vehicle.
We unlock a wide range of lockouts for any type and model of vehicle such as autos, trucks, SUVs, vans, and motorcycles. The newest autos with complex security systems involve a level of expertise for unlocking without setting off warning systems and protecting electronic components, and our locksmiths keep current with this level of training.
This means we come right to wherever your vehicle is: your home, your workplace, shopping mall parking lots—anywhere in Pembroke Pines. You no longer have to pay for tow truck services but instead go back out in your own vehicle.
Car Key Replacement
A lost, stolen, or broken automobile key poses a number of problems that need to be resolved with expert key replacement assistance. Today’s automobile key offers a number of advanced features when compared to a simple metallic key.
Our locksmiths are skilled in offering total car key replacement for any type of key. Ordinary metallic car keys for old cars can be made instantly using special equipment. Transponder keys were a norm in most cars beginning from the 1990s; in such keys, there are electronic chips that have to be programmed to correspond with your immobilizer in a vehicle. Otherwise, such keys would turn when inserted in the ignition but would be unable to turn on the vehicle.
Key Fobs: They involve a combination of traditional key blades and other operations such as lock, unlock, trunk release, and panic buttons. Smart Keys and Proximity Keys: They are considered modern developments as one can unlock and open a car without necessarily removing the key from a purse or pocket. This requires distinct replacement techniques for each form of key and equipment that is continually updated based on changing automobile technology.
In cases where a customer loses their entire set of house keys, we can still help reproduce those keys using our access to your vehicle’s key code found within manufacturer databases. We can also decode lock cylinders.
Our replacement keys work in a similar manner to conventional factory replacement keys. They open locks, start engines, and access other remote commands. We check our replacement keys before finishing a service.
Car Key Duplication
Having a single key for your automobile poses a risk of being left stranded in case the single key gets lost or destroyed. The prevention measure of making spare keys for your automobile is cost-effective.
Car key duplication services are also available for any type of key. The process of duplicating metal car keys may seem old-school but is easy and cheap. However, making a duplicate for a transponder key, a key fob, and a smart key requires programming. We perform this task efficiently.
By the time some owners of a vehicle think about a spare key, this would be because they have lost their only key. However, making a spare while still having access to a usable key would be faster and perhaps cheaper. We would advise that spare keys be made and kept in a safe place other than where your main key is. This could be at home or with a member of your family.
Car Key Fob Programming
Key fobs have electronic circuits that may go bad because of water damage, physical shock, or simple use. The most prevalent issue with a key fob is dead batteries. This is easy to replace. However, when electronic circuits go bad, a key fob may need to be reprogrammed or replaced.
Standby Locksmith offers expert key fob programming for any make and model of vehicle. Whether your key fobs are broken and need to be replaced, or perhaps you’d like a spare—whatever the reason: we can program a new key fob for your vehicle. This requires our technicians using a manufacturer-specific reader that connects to your vehicle’s onboard computer. This allows us access to your security programming interface.
The programming time may vary depending on the fob and may take 15 to 30 minutes for one fob. We check all features to see that everything’s fine with the new one. Whether the vehicle allows more than one fob to be programmed together or individually may vary. Also, we make sure to unprogram any old and lost fobs for security reasons.
Car Rekeying Services
Vehicle rekeying refers to a process whereby lock cylinders are changed such that old keys are no longer usable while a new set of keys can be used. This process may be important in cases where one loses their keys but wants to ensure those lost keys can’t access one’s vehicle. Additionally, one may want to rekey a vehicle to ensure previous owners can’t access a used vehicle. This may occur following a break-in.
Rekeying would always be more economical than replacing the locks altogether. Rekeying would be applicable for locks found on doors, trunk locks, and ignition locks. In cases where the automobile has electronic security systems, we would then reprogram the immobilizer system to work with only the new keys.
This mobile rekeying service available with Standby Locksmith gives us the capability to perform this work for you without requiring a trip to a dealership. This saves time and money for rekeying your vehicle. We can rekey most cars with our equipment and replacement parts.
Ignition Change and Repair
Starting problems might keep your car from turning over when you have a functional key. Some common problems with ignition systems include tumblers that have worn down so much that a key turns with difficulty, ignition locks that refuse to give up a key when you turn off the engine, broken keys that remain in the ignition lock cylinder, and a completely faulty ignition.
At Standby Locksmith, our ignition repair services involve repair, rekeying, and replacement. In cases where a key breaks off inside the ignition lock cylinder, we are capable of removing the broken portion of the key and making a duplicate. We can repair a broken ignition lock cylinder instead of replacing it.
In cases where a full replacement of the ignition system is called for, we can execute this process for you. We replace your existing ignition system with a new cylinder that we also program to function with your existing keys. We ensure this new system has a smooth interface with your car’s electrical suite and security features. Where your automobile has electronic ignition with push-start features, we possess the capability to repair this particular technology.
Ignition Issues Must be Handled by Professionals
Ignition issues have to be handled by professionals because of the connection between the ignition cylinder and other mechanisms in your vehicle such as the locking mechanism and security. This means that instead of solving ignition problems, a layperson may end up complicating the issue and rendering a vehicle unable to function.
