About the service
Professional Car Key Replacement in Marina del Rey
Your only car key just went off a dock near Burton Chace Park, or it's under the sand after a day at Mother's Beach. This is a harbor town; keys sink here. We come to the slip lot, the condo garage off Via Marina, wherever the car sits — cut a fresh blade from the lock and program the chip so the engine starts.
The alternative is a flatbed up Lincoln to a dealership and a wait that can run days for some fobs. Skip it. We cut spares too, which matters here — salt air chews through fob buttons and flip-key hinges, and a second key made while the first still works is the cheap version of this job.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Marina del Rey
On arrival we check ID and registration — nobody should hand out a working key without that. Then we pull the VIN, decode the door lock or pull the factory key code, and cut the blade in the van. Most cars built since the late nineties carry a transponder chip, so we plug into the OBD port, program it, pair the remote, and test doors, trunk, and a cold start.
We work the marina loop — Admiralty Way, Via Marina, the garages off Washington — plus Venice and Mar Vista. Lincoln traffic decides our arrival time more than distance does, so we give an honest window when you call. At the car, a typical lost-key job wraps in under an hour; push-button fobs on newer models take longer, and we say so up front.

Common questions
FAQ
Do I need a tow to the dealer?
No. The whole point of on-site key cutting is that the car stays where it is — a slip lot off Admiralty Way, a condo garage, street parking in Venice. Towing out of a marina parking structure is a headache you can skip entirely.
How does the price compare with a dealership?
Usually well under it, once you count the tow the dealer route requires and the days of waiting. We quote by year, make, and model before we drive out, so you know the number in advance. Basic transponder keys cost less than proximity fobs — that part is true everywhere.
Do you program transponder chips and smart fobs?
Yes. Chip keys, flip keys, and push-to-start proximity fobs are all programmed at the car with the same OBD equipment a dealer uses. If your model is one of the few we can't do curbside, we tell you on the phone, not after you've waited.
Do you work on-site or do I bring the car to a shop?
On-site, always. Marina del Rey parking being what it is, we come to wherever the car actually sits — dock lots, tandem condo spaces, metered spots near the beach — and finish the job there.
