Key fob — Lansing, MI

What affects the price
Locksmith services depend on a few key variables. First, the type of lock you have matters; high-security or smart locks often require more specialized tools than standard deadbolts. The time of day also plays a role, as after-hours or holiday service calls typically carry higher rates. Your specific location and the distance a technician needs to travel can influence the total as well. Whether you are dealing with a simple lockout or a complex ignition issue, these factors shift the final bill. Exact pricing is confirmed free on the call.
About this service
A key fob is the electronic device that allows you to unlock your doors or start your car remotely. If your fob is lost, damaged, or has a dead battery that won't hold a charge, we can provide a replacement and sync it to your vehicle’s security system. You need this service if your car is no longer responding to button presses or if you have upgraded to a push-to-start ignition system that requires a proximity fob.

A car key replacement usually refers to creating a new physical key for your car's locks and ignition. A car key fob is a remote control that typically allows for keyless entry and engine start. Many modern fobs also contain a hidden emergency key. While a locksmith can replace and program both, the technology and procedures differ. The fob communicates wirelessly with your car. We can provide a quote for either service.
