Common questions

Can't find your answer? Call us. A keymaker, not a salesperson, will pick up.

Ask a keymaker
Can you copy any key?

Most house, mailbox, padlock and cabinet keys are cut while you wait. Restricted and high-security keys need the owner's authorisation card, which keeps your key system secure.

How much does a new car key cost?

Transponder keys and fobs start at $120 including programming. If every key is lost, a new one made from your VIN starts at $180. We quote on the phone before we come out.

How fast can you get to me?

Most Springfield calls are reached within 30 minutes. When you call, we give you a live ETA and text you the keymaker's name and photo.

Can you make a car key if I've lost every copy?

Yes. We can cut and program transponder keys and fobs for most vehicles on site, using your VIN and proof of ownership.

Do I need to prove I own the property?

Yes. We check a photo ID with a matching address, a lease, or vehicle registration. It keeps your home and car protected from anyone else.

Which payment methods do you accept?

All major cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and cash. Business customers can request monthly invoicing.
