Ford keys are not all the same. Many F-150 trucks use a PATS transponder key, where the key has to be recognized by the vehicle before the engine will run. Many Explorers use an Intelligent Access push-button system with a smart key or fob. Which one your vehicle needs depends on the model, year and trim, so we work from your VIN rather than guessing.

In Hermosa Beach, a lost key rarely happens at a convenient spot. It might be after a beach day by The Strand, a night out near Pier Plaza, or a tight street spot in the Hills. Crenshaw Lock Company is fully mobile and has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, so we bring the equipment to your Ford and handle the key on site, whether you have a spare or have lost every key.

How it works in Hermosa Beach

  1. 1

    Call and share your VIN

    Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us your Ford model, year and where it is parked. We use the VIN to confirm which key type your F-150 or Explorer needs, whether a PATS transponder key or an Intelligent Access smart key.

  2. 2

    We come to your vehicle

    We are fully mobile. A technician meets you at your Ford, whether it is on a street, in a lot or at home. We verify ownership and identification before any key work begins.

  3. 3

    Key cut or prepared for your vehicle

    Depending on your system, we prepare a bladed key or a push-button smart key matched to your Ford. This applies to lost-key, all-keys-lost and extra-spare situations alike.

  4. 4

    Programming and testing

    We program the new key to your vehicle and test it thoroughly: door locks, ignition or push-button start, and remote functions where fitted. We also check any existing keys still work.

  5. 5

    Spare key advice

    If you are down to one key, we recommend a spare while we are already there. It costs far less than an emergency call after losing the last key.

What affects the price

Ford keys across Hermosa Beach

Hermosa Beach is compact and walkable, but parking is tight and vehicles often sit for hours. We help Ford owners in The Strand / Sand Section, where beach days end with keys lost in the sand or surf, and around Downtown Pier Avenue, where visitors to Pier Plaza dining and nightlife or the Comedy & Magic Club can find themselves stranded late at night. In East Hermosa (the Hills), we come to your driveway or curb so you do not have to tow your truck anywhere.

We serve ZIP code 90254 and the surrounding area, including spots near Hermosa Beach Pier, South Park and the Hermosa Beach Community Center. Many local drivers use an F-150 for beach gear and work, and Explorers for family trips, so a missing key disrupts the whole day. Call (323) 997-8867 any hour and we will come to wherever your Ford is parked.

Ford keys in Hermosa Beach — FAQs

What if I lost all my Ford keys in Hermosa Beach?
We can help with all-keys-lost situations. We come to your vehicle, confirm the key type by VIN, and make and program a new key on site. Call (323) 997-8867 any time, day or night.
Can you make a spare Ford key?
Yes. Adding a spare is easier before you lose the last key. We prepare and program it at your vehicle, and we recommend having one made while you still have a working key.
What if I don't have the original key?
You do not need the original. We work from your VIN and proof of ownership to determine the correct key, then cut or prepare and program a new one at your location.
What is the difference between a bladed key and a push-button Ford key?
Many F-150 trucks use a PATS transponder key with a bladed head, while many Explorers use an Intelligent Access smart key for push-button start. Your exact type depends on year and trim, and the VIN tells us which one applies.
How do you confirm the right key for my Ford?
We use your VIN along with the model, year and what you have in hand. This confirms the correct key type before we start, so we do not rely on guesswork.
Do I have to tow my Ford to you?
No. We are fully mobile and come to your vehicle anywhere in Hermosa Beach, so there is no need to tow it. Call (323) 997-8867 to get started.
