Losing the key to a Ford F-150 or Explorer is never convenient, and in Chatsworth it often happens far from a dealership: at a trailhead near Santa Susana Pass, in a warehouse lot off Canoga or Lassen, or beside a barn gate. We are a mobile-only locksmith, so we come to the vehicle instead of asking you to tow it anywhere.
Many Fords use a PATS transponder system, where the key must be recognized by the vehicle before the engine will run. Newer trucks and SUVs may use Intelligent Access push-button keys. The exact key for your vehicle is confirmed by its VIN, so we verify that before cutting or programming anything. Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987.
How it works in Chatsworth
- 1
Call and share your vehicle details
Call (323) 997-8867 any hour and tell us your Ford model, year, and where it is parked. We ask whether you have a working key, a spare, or nothing at all, so we can bring the right equipment.

Verify ownership and VIN
On arrival we check your ID and proof of ownership and read the VIN. The VIN lets us confirm the correct key type for your truck or SUV, whether a bladed transponder key or a push-button Intelligent Access key.
- 3
Cut or prepare the new key
For bladed keys we cut a new blade from the vehicle's information when no original exists. For push-button keys we prepare a compatible replacement. All work happens at your vehicle.

Program and test
We program the new key to your Ford, then test the door functions, the ignition or push-button start, and any remote buttons. Spare keys can be added at the same visit so you are not stranded again.
What affects the price
- Key type: a basic bladed transponder key differs from an Intelligent Access push-button key in parts and programming effort.
- Situation: adding a spare when you still have a working key is usually simpler than an all-keys-lost situation where no key exists.
- Model and year: the F-150 and Explorer have changed over the years, and the VIN determines which key and procedure apply.
- Number of keys: programming several keys in one visit, such as a spare plus a replacement, affects the total.
- Time and location: after-hours calls and hard-to-reach spots may influence the quote, which we give before work begins.
