Losing the only key to a Ford is stressful, especially when the truck is your work vehicle or the Explorer is your family's daily driver. Many Fords use PATS transponder keys, and newer models use Intelligent Access push-button keys. These keys must be matched to the vehicle, so a hardware store copy usually will not start the engine.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles since 1987, and we never ask you to tow your Ford anywhere. Our locksmiths come to the vehicle with the tools to cut and program a replacement, whether you lost your last key, want a spare before that happens, or are in an all-keys-lost situation.
How it works in Los Angeles
- 1
Call and describe your Ford
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us the model, the year, and where you are parked. Let us know whether you have a working key, a spare, or nothing at all. We are available 24/7 and will explain what to expect before we head out.

We come to your vehicle
Our mobile locksmith drives to your F-150 or Explorer, whether it is at home, at work, or in a parking structure. Nothing needs to be towed, and the work happens right where the vehicle sits.

Verify ownership and confirm the key by VIN
We check your ID and proof of ownership, then use the VIN to confirm the correct key type for your Ford. Whether it is a PATS transponder blade key or an Intelligent Access push-button key, the VIN is how we make sure the replacement is right.
- 4
Cut, program, and test
We create the new key, program it to your vehicle, and test it thoroughly. That covers starting the engine and, where applicable, the remote and push-button functions, before you drive away.
What affects the price
- Key type: a standard PATS transponder blade key differs from an Intelligent Access push-button key.
- Your 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, Explorer, and other Fords can have different key and security requirements.
- Number of keys: programming more than one key in a single visit can change the overall job.
- Time and location: after-hours calls and hard-to-reach spots can affect the total, and we explain it before work begins.
