How a roadside key replacement works

Step 1: Call 604-734-7233 with your vehicle make, model, year, and exact location anywhere in Greater Vancouver. We give you a price up front. Step 2: Licensed technician dispatched, typical arrival 20-30 minutes. We service Vancouver proper, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Delta, Langley, Coquitlam, Port Moody, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, New Westminster, and Maple Ridge. Step 3: VIN verified via government ID—standard procedure before any key is created. Step 4: Key cut to vehicle profile, transponder chip or smart fob programmed on-site, all functions tested.

Common car key situations we handle

Lost the only key in a Metrotown parkade or at a Park Royal lot—AKL service $280-$520 with on-site immobilizer reset, no tow needed. Locked keys inside the vehicle in Burnaby or Richmond—non-destructive entry, then key duplication if needed. Need a spare before a road trip from Surrey or Langley—transponder spare $180-$240, smart fob spare $300-$420 cut and programmed in 30-60 minutes. Key fob battery dead in cold weather—we replace, repair, or re-pair fobs roadside. No original key for an inherited or recently purchased vehicle—key-by-VIN service generates a working key from your VIN code without a reference.
