Losing the only key to a Ford F-150 or Explorer is a bad day, especially when the truck is your work vehicle or the family's main ride. Many Fords use a PATS transponder key, and newer models use Intelligent Access push-button keys. Both need to be correctly coded to the vehicle, which is why a basic hardware-store copy will not start the engine.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and we are fully mobile. We have no shop for you to get to. Our technician comes to your vehicle in Arleta, whether it sits in a driveway, a parking lot or at the curb, and handles lost-key, spare-key and all-keys-lost situations without a tow.
How it works in Arleta
- 1
Call and share your vehicle details
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us the Ford model, year and where you are parked. We will ask about the key type you have or had, such as a bladed PATS key or an Intelligent Access push-button key, and whether any working key is left.

We come to your vehicle
Our mobile technician drives to you in Arleta, so there is no tow and no trip to a dealer. We verify you are the owner or authorized user before any key work begins.
- 3
Confirm the key by VIN
We use the VIN to confirm the correct key type for your exact Ford. This avoids guessing from the model name alone, since the right key can vary by year and trim.
- 4
Cut, program and test
We cut the key if it is a bladed type, then program it to the vehicle and add any spare you want. We test the door, ignition or push-button start and any remote functions before we finish.
What affects the price
- Key type: a basic transponder key and an Intelligent Access push-button key are different products and are priced differently.
- Whether you have a working key: making a spare from an existing key is usually simpler than an all-keys-lost situation.
- Model year and trim of the F-150 or Explorer, which affects the key and programming required.
- How many keys you want made, since adding a spare during the same visit is often more efficient.
- Time of day and location, as after-hours and overnight calls are part of our 24/7 service.
Ford keys across Arleta
Arleta is a tight-knit San Fernando Valley community in ZIP 91331, and Fords are a common sight here, from work trucks parked near the Woodman Avenue and Osborne Street commercial strip to family Explorers in the driveways around the Branford Park district. We hear from drivers who lose keys after a game at Branford Recreation Center & Park, or while running errands along the Van Nuys Boulevard corridor.
Because we are fully mobile, we meet you wherever the Ford is stuck: a lot by Arleta High School, a curb off Van Nuys Boulevard, or your own driveway in 91331. Call (323) 997-8867 any hour and we will plan the visit around your vehicle and location.
