Car keys & key programming

New keys, fobs and smart keys — coded in your driveway.

Most of our calls are automotive: a key lost on the lakefront, a fob that quit working, or a spare you never got around to making. The van leaves Covington, Louisiana with the cutting and programming equipment on board, so your key is made at the vehicle instead of at a dealership.

Why Covington, Louisiana

Five years in business — Covington's most trusted key and lock crew.

We're based in Covington, Louisiana, and most of our work is automotive — car lockouts, lost keys and programming at your vehicle. Locksmithing has a reputation problem, though: bait pricing, unmarked vans, drilled doors. We built this company as the opposite of that.

  • Car keys cut and programmed on site

    Transponder keys, remote fobs and proximity smart keys made at your vehicle — most in 30–60 minutes, so there is no dealership tow and no dealership price.

  • Flat quote before we drive

    The number you hear on the phone is the number on the invoice. No mystery labor lines — just a straightforward travel fee based on how far we drive, quoted up front.

  • Non-destructive first, always

    Picking and bypassing beats drilling. Nine out of ten of our lockouts leave the original hardware fully working.

  • Background-checked technicians

    Every tech is registered, fingerprinted, uniformed and arrives in a marked van with a photo ID card.

  • 90-day labor warranty

    If something we serviced acts up within three months, we come back and fix it at no cost to you.
