Four jobs cover almost every car key problem. All of them are done where the vehicle is, by a mobile auto locksmith.
If you only have one key for the car, you are one lost key away from a much bigger bill. A spare is copied from the key you already have, cut to match and programmed to the vehicle, so it starts the car and works the locks and the remote buttons just like the original. It is done at your home or work and usually in a single visit.
Losing every key does not mean the car has to be towed. A locksmith comes to where it is parked, gets in without damage, cuts a new key and programs it to the car. On most vehicles the lost keys can be wiped from the car's memory at the same time, so a key that turns up in the wrong hands will not start it. You will be asked for ID and proof that the vehicle is yours.
Keys on the seat, in the boot or in the ignition with the doors locked. It happens to everybody. The car is opened using tools made for the job, not a coat hanger, so the locks, seals and paint are left as they were. If the key itself has stopped unlocking the car, that can be looked at in the same visit.
Keys wear out. Blades snap, buttons stop working, cases crack and the chip inside can fail so the key turns but the engine will not start. Often the working parts can be moved into a new case or a replacement key made from the old one, which costs less than starting from nothing.
