A BMW key is more than a piece of metal. Most 3 Series and 5 Series keys are encrypted and many use Comfort Access, so the car has to recognize the key before it will start. That is why a hardware-store copy will not work, and why a lost key in El Segundo can leave you stuck at the office, the gym, or the driveway.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and BMW Comfort Access and encrypted keys are our specialty. We are 100% mobile, so there is no tow to a shop. We come to wherever the car is parked, verify ownership, confirm the correct key by VIN, and get you driving again.
How it works in El Segundo
- 1
Call and share your VIN
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us the model, year, and where the car is parked. Your VIN lets us confirm the exact key your BMW needs instead of guessing from the model name.
- 2
We come to your car
Our mobile locksmith drives to your vehicle in El Segundo, whether it is at home, at work, or on the street. Nothing needs to be towed.
- 3
Verify ownership
Before any key is made, we ask for proof that you own the car, such as ID and registration or title. This protects you and your BMW.
- 4
Cut and program the key
We prepare a new key for your car, whether it is a push-button Comfort Access fob or a bladed key. We handle lost-key, spare, and all-keys-lost situations.
- 5
Test everything
We check that the key starts the car, locks and unlocks it, and works as expected before we leave, so you are not surprised later.
What affects the price
- Whether you still have a working key (adding a spare) or have lost all keys
- Model and year of your 3 Series or 5 Series, as confirmed by VIN
- Type of key: push-button Comfort Access fob versus a bladed key
- Whether the key needs to be cut, programmed, or both
- Time of day and your exact location when you call for service
