Local Service

Why New Yorkers Skip the Dealer

Getting a key from a dealership in New York usually means towing the car, booking an appointment and waiting days for a part. We come to your street in Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx, Long Island, Westchester or Rockland and make the key at the car.

To make a key we need to confirm ownership, so have your photo ID and the registration or title ready, plus the VIN (on the dashboard or registration). If you have lost every key, we can erase the old keys from the car so a found or stolen key can no longer start it.
