Losing the only key to a Ford is stressful, whether you are parked at a store, at work, or in your own driveway. Modern Fords, including the F-150 and Explorer, use PATS transponder keys or Intelligent Access push-button systems, so a plain hardware-store copy will not start the engine. Our technicians bring the equipment to your vehicle in Cerritos, so there is no tow and no trip to a dealership.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987. We handle lost keys, spare keys, and all-keys-lost situations for Ford trucks and SUVs. The exact key for your vehicle is confirmed by its VIN, so you get the correct type for your model and year instead of a guess.
How it works in Cerritos
- 1

Verify ownership and confirm by VIN
We check proof of ownership and use the VIN to confirm the correct key type for your F-150, Explorer, or other Ford, whether it is a PATS transponder key or an Intelligent Access fob.
- 4
Cut, program, and test
We create the new key or fob, program it to your vehicle, and test it by starting the engine and operating the locks and any remote functions before we finish.
What affects the price
- Key type: a bladed transponder key and a push-button Intelligent Access fob differ in cost.
- Situation: adding a spare when you still have a working key is usually simpler than an all-keys-lost job.
- Model and year: the F-150 and Explorer vary by generation and equipment, which affects the key needed.
- Number of keys: programming more than one key or fob in the same visit changes the total.
- Time and location of the service call, including after-hours requests.
