Questions

I hear these a lot

Straight answers — no runaround.

Will you damage my car during a lockout?

No. I use specialized tools designed for damage-free entry. In thousands of lockouts, cosmetic damage is extremely rare. I'll walk you through my method before I begin.

How fast can you get here?

Usually about 30 minutes across Sacramento. I'll give you an honest ETA before I roll — no vague "on my way" promises.

I lost my only key. Can you still make one?

Yes, for most vehicles. I cut and program a new key from scratch at your location. Text me year, make, and model — I'll confirm in a couple of minutes.

Do you program smart keys and transponders?

Yes. Smart keys, transponders, and remote fobs for most makes and models, with professional programming tools.

What info do you need for a quote?

Three things: your vehicle (year, make, model), your location, and what you need. Text or call — you'll have a price in a couple of minutes.

Why do you ask for proof of ownership?

To protect you. I verify ownership (registration or ID) before every job. It keeps your vehicle safe — and it's required by California law.

What payment methods do you take?

Cash, all major cards, and mobile payments like Apple Pay or Google Pay.

Get in touch

I pick up day and night — even holidays
