Spare Keys for Every Unit in Your Fleet, Made at Your Yard

We cut and program a spare key for every truck, van and car in your fleet, usually in one visit to the yard, tag each by unit and put the visit on one invoice.

A work truck with one key stops working the day that key leaves in a helper's pocket or drops behind a job site dumpster. The fix is a second key for every unit, made while the vehicles sit in your own yard.

Plumbers and electricians with pickups and cargo vans, delivery operators, and rental or car-share lots all run into it. Instead of sending each unit to a franchise dealer, we bring key stock, the code cutter and the programming tool to your lot and work down the row.

Every unit is priced from the public table on the pricing page: a 2014 or older F-150 chip key from $129, a plain laser-cut Transit chip key from $149, a ProMaster chip key from $145. A rate card for larger fleets is a phone conversation.

The van: key stock, cutter and programming tool, parked at your car.

How it works for you

Every unit done at your yard

Line the vehicles up or leave them where they park. Each key is cut and programmed at its own vehicle, so a row of spares never becomes a row of dealer appointments.

Keys tagged by unit

Each finished key gets a tag with the unit number, the plate or the last digits of the VIN, whichever your yard goes by. When we pull out, every tag matches a vehicle in the lot.

One invoice for the visit

One invoice lists each unit, the key it took and its table price. Your office files one document instead of a stack of dealer repair orders, and payment is card or cash once the keys work.

No vehicle out of service

No driver waits in a dealer lounge. Each vehicle is parked only while its own key is made, and a unit with no key left gets one where it sits, with no $125 to $200 flatbed.

A year of warranty on each key

Every key we make carries one year on the key, the remote and the programming. A key run over in the yard is damage rather than a defect, and the warranty page shows where that line sits.

Who this is for

Trades are the natural fit: plumbing, electrical, HVAC and landscape outfits that send pickups and vans out from a yard each morning. Delivery operators with Transit and ProMaster vans have the same need at a higher count.

Rental and car-share units lose keys another way, with a renter or member. When no working key is left, that is a lost-key job: the table price plus $60 for the VIN work, with the missing key wiped from the immobilizer at no charge.

How a yard visit runs

Send the list first: unit number, year, make and model, and whether each vehicle still has a working key. We price every line from the table and give you the total by phone or text before anyone drives.

Tell us when the fleet is home, early before crews roll out or after they return, and we work out a time with you inside 7 AM to 9 PM. A unit with no working key needs proof of ownership: the paperwork that shows the business owns or is responsible for the car, plus ID for whoever signs.

The dealer math, times every unit

At a franchise service drive, each spare means a driver taking the vehicle in, programming billed separately at $100 to $180, and one to three days of waiting if the key is ordered. A chip key the dealer typically lists at $230 to $380 runs $125 to $199 from us, at the vehicle.

One caution up front: most Mercedes vehicles from 2014 on take keys only a Mercedes dealer can issue. Some newer Sprinter vans may fall there too, depending on the year, so we check each Sprinter by VIN when we read your list. Why our number runs lower on everything else is covered in why we cost less.

Questions people ask

Is there a fleet rate?

Every unit is priced from the public table, the same figure a private driver pays for that key. A rate card for volume is something we discuss by phone rather than print, so call (619) 340-1518 with the unit count and the makes you run before the visit is booked.

Do the vehicles all have to be at one yard?

No, but each vehicle has to be somewhere we can pull up beside it, because the key is programmed at the car. The yard is simplest, since the van works down one row. A truck parked at a job site or a driver's home gets its own call at the same table price, with no trip fee.

What do you need from us before the visit?

A unit list with the year, make and model of each vehicle, the VIN where you have it, and which units still have a working key. From that we price every key and tell you which units need proof of ownership. Send it through the form on this page or text it to (619) 340-1518.

What happens with a unit that has no key at all?

It is priced as a lost-key job: the table price for that key plus $60, which pays for reading the key code off the VIN and setting up the immobilizer from blank. We need the paperwork that shows the business owns or is responsible for the car, plus ID for the person signing. Once the new key works, the missing one is erased from the vehicle at no charge.
