Losing a key fob in Granada Hills is rarely convenient. Maybe it slipped out of a pocket on a trail near O'Melveny Park, got left in a shopping cart off Balboa Blvd, or simply stopped working after years of use. Modern fobs are small computers, and replacing one involves more than cutting a piece of metal. The new fob has to be matched to your vehicle and programmed so the car recognizes it.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and we are fully mobile. There is no storefront to visit and no need to tow your car anywhere. Our technician drives to your driveway, your workplace parking lot, or wherever the vehicle is sitting, and does the work there. That matters in a neighborhood where many people commute on the I-405, the Ronald Reagan Freeway (SR-118), or Sepulveda Blvd and cannot easily get a car to a shop.

We handle standard remote-head keys, flip keys, and push-button start proximity keys. If you have lost every key to the vehicle, we can often work from the vehicle itself to create a new one, depending on make, model, and year. If you still have a working key, duplicating and programming a spare is usually simpler, and we recommend doing it before the last one disappears.

How it works in Granada Hills

  1. 1

    Call and describe the situation

    Call (323) 997-8867 any hour. Tell us the make, model, and year, whether you have any working key left, and where the vehicle is parked. We will explain what is possible for your car and what the job generally involves.

  2. 2

    We travel to your vehicle

    Because we are fully mobile, the work happens where the car is, whether that is a driveway in Knollwood, a curb on Chatsworth St, or a school lot near Granada Hills Charter High School. You do not need to move the vehicle.

  3. 3

    Verify ownership

    Before creating a key for any vehicle, we ask for proof that you own it or are authorized to have a key made, typically a registration or title along with matching identification. This protects you and every other car owner.

  4. 4

    Cut, source, or prepare the fob

    Depending on the vehicle, we prepare a compatible fob and, where there is a mechanical emergency blade, cut it to your lock. We confirm the fob type matches your car before programming begins.

  5. 5

    Program and pair with the vehicle

    We pair the new fob to your car's immobilizer and remote system using professional programming equipment. Any remaining keys are checked as well, since some vehicles require all keys to be present or reprogrammed together.

  6. 6

    Test every function

    We test locking, unlocking, trunk or hatch release, panic, and push-button start where equipped, and also the mechanical key blade. You leave knowing everything works before we go.

What affects the price

  • Vehicle make, model, and year, since some systems are far more complex to program than others
  • Type of key: a basic remote-head key, a flip key, or a push-button proximity smart key
  • Whether you have a working key to copy or all keys are lost, which changes the programming approach
  • Whether the fob can be programmed with a simple procedure or needs specialized equipment and security access
  • Number of fobs needed, such as one replacement versus a replacement plus a spare
  • Time of day and location, given that we operate 24/7 and travel to you

Key Fob Replacement across Granada Hills

Granada Hills spreads from the older streets of Old Granada Hills along Chatsworth St to the foothill neighborhoods near Bee Canyon and Bull Creek. Many households here have more than one car, often parked in driveways of 1950s and 1960s ranch homes, and fobs get shared, borrowed, and lost. In ZIP code 91344, we regularly hear from drivers whose fob stopped working after years of daily use or who dropped one while out running errands along Balboa Blvd, Devonshire St, or Rinaldi St.

In Balboa Highlands, the Eichler tract known for its mid-century modern homes, residents often keep their cars in carports or on quiet streets, and a lost fob can leave a car stranded just as easily as anywhere else. Knollwood, near the Knollwood Country Club, has similar needs, including spare fobs for family members. We meet you at the vehicle, so a gated or hillside driveway is not an obstacle.

If you live up toward O'Melveny Park, the second-largest park in the City of Los Angeles, a day on the trails can end with a missing key. Heat and dust can also wear on fobs and batteries. Whether you are in 91344 or 91394, or commuting toward the I-5, the I-405, or SR-118, call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to you.

Key Fob Replacement in Granada Hills — FAQs

Can you replace a key fob if I lost all my keys?
In many cases, yes. Depending on the make, model, and year, we can often create a new key and program it to the vehicle even when no working key remains. Call (323) 997-8867 with your vehicle details and we will tell you what to expect.
Do I need to tow my car to you?
No. We are fully mobile and have no storefront. We come to your vehicle anywhere in Granada Hills and program the fob on site.
Are you available at night and on weekends?
Yes. Crenshaw Lock Company is available 24/7, including nights, weekends, and holidays. Call (323) 997-8867 whenever you need help.
Will you need proof that the car is mine?
Yes. We ask for registration or title and matching identification before making a key. It is a standard safeguard that protects owners from theft.
Can you program a fob I bought online?
Sometimes. Many aftermarket or online fobs can be programmed, but quality varies and some are locked or incompatible. It is best to describe what you have before we arrive so we can advise you.
Is it cheaper to repair my fob than replace it?
Sometimes a dead battery, worn buttons, or a cracked case can be fixed without a full replacement. We will tell you honestly if that is a better option for your fob.
What kinds of fobs do you handle?
We work with remote-head keys, flip keys, and push-button start proximity keys for many vehicle makes. Call (323) 997-8867 to confirm your specific vehicle.
Should I get a spare fob made?
We recommend it. Making a spare while you still have a working key is generally simpler than starting from no keys, and it saves trouble if one is lost on a hike or a commute.
