Key Cutting in Abbotsford

House and office keys for Abbotsford are cut on the van at a booked visit, or over the counter in Vancouver if you are already coming through town.

Every key is cut on a calibrated machine and tested in the lock before we leave. A key that turns roughly on the first try is a key that will strand you in a year, so we recut rather than hand it over.

Abbotsford is a booked visit rather than a dispatch. We agree a window on the phone, then drive Highway 1 east, about 70 km from the Macdonald Street shop, which takes 60-75 minutes each way.

You get the price on the phone before anyone is dispatched, and the technician confirms it at the door before starting work.

• House and office keys: $5-$15 each, or $8-$30 for specialty and commercial blanks
• Uncut key blank over the counter: $4.75
• Restricted and high-security keys (Mul-T-Lock, Medeco, Schlage Primus) cut to registered code: $30-$80
• Transponder car-key spare, cut and coded: $180-$240
• Proximity smart-key spare: $300-$420

Restricted keyways cannot be copied on demand. That is the point of them. Bring the authorisation card or the strata approval and we cut to the registered code; without it we cannot, and neither can anyone else who is doing it properly.

Everything is cut and programmed by the same licensed team that runs the counter at 4105 Macdonald St in Vancouver, so a walk-in job and a mobile job are quoted from the same price list.

If the key is unusual, an old mortise blank, a cabinet key, a padlock keyed to a house, we would rather see it than guess. Send a photo when you call and we will load the right blanks before driving to Abbotsford. The site-wide detail is on the key cutting page.
