Locked out of your car, lost your only key, or need a spare fob programmed — modern vehicles almost universally use transponder chips or proximity fobs, which means a locksmith needs the right programming equipment, not just a slim-jim and a hope. We carry programming tools covering the large majority of makes and models on the road in Guelph.
Entry itself is done without damaging paint, window seals or the lock mechanism — proper tools, not a coat hanger. Key cutting and fob programming for a lost or stolen key is also handled on-site for most vehicles; some rare or high-security models need dealer-level programming, which we'll tell you upfront if that's your situation.
For most makes and models, yes — cut and programmed on-site once we confirm vehicle ownership. Some newer luxury or high-security models require dealer-level programming, which we'll tell you upfront.
No — proper automotive entry tools access the lock or door without damaging paint, weatherstripping or the lock mechanism itself.
Vehicle registration matching your ID, or another reasonable proof of ownership. This is standard practice and protects you against someone else trying to get into your vehicle.
We come to you — a parking lot, your driveway, the roadside. Towing is a last resort only for the rare vehicles that require dealer-only service.
