A BMW key is more than a piece of metal. Many 3 Series and 5 Series models use encrypted keys, and some use Comfort Access keyless entry, so the car has to recognize the key before it will start. A key lost at the beach or left in a jacket pocket can leave you stranded, and a dealer tow is the last thing you want.

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 mobile only, with no shop to visit. A technician comes to the vehicle, whether you have lost every key, want a spare before you lose the last one, or have no original key to copy.

How it works in Manhattan Beach

  1. 1

    Call and share your VIN

    Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us your BMW model, year, and where it is parked. We use the VIN to confirm exactly which key your car needs, so we never guess from the model name alone.

  2. 2

    We come to your BMW

    A technician drives to your car in Manhattan Beach, whether it is at home, at work, or in a lot near the pier. Everything is done at the vehicle.

  3. 3

    Verify ownership

    Before any key is made, we ask for proof that you own the car or are authorized to have keys made for it. This protects you and every other BMW owner.

  4. 4

    Cut and program the key

    We prepare the new key for your vehicle, including a mechanical emergency blade where one applies, and program it so the car recognizes it. This works for lost-key, spare-key, and all-keys-lost situations.

  5. 5

    Test everything

    We test the key's functions, including locking, unlocking, and starting, and make sure any other keys you still have work correctly before we leave.

What affects the price

BMW keys across Manhattan Beach

Manhattan Beach drivers park in very different places. In the Sand Section, many cars sit on tight streets near The Strand and the Manhattan Beach Pier, where a lost key after a beach day can strand you. In the Hill Section and the Tree Section, BMWs often live in home garages and driveways, and a missing key means a call from your own front yard. In East Manhattan Beach, we can also meet you near Manhattan Village mall.

We serve all of ZIP 90266 and the surrounding South Bay. Whether your BMW is at Polliwog Park, Metlox Plaza, or on a quiet residential street, our mobile technicians bring the equipment to you. Call (323) 997-8867 any hour and have your VIN ready.

BMW keys in Manhattan Beach — FAQs

What if I lost all my BMW keys in Manhattan Beach?
We can help with all-keys-lost situations. Call (323) 997-8867, give us your VIN and proof of ownership, and a technician comes to your car to make and program a new key on site.
Can you make a spare BMW key?
Yes. Having a spare made while you still have a working key is usually simpler than replacing all keys after a loss. We come to you, so you do not need to drive anywhere.
Can you replace a key if I have no original?
Yes. We work from your VIN and proof of ownership rather than an existing key, so having no original does not stop the job.
What is the difference between a push-button key and a bladed key?
Push-button and Comfort Access keys let the car sense the key for entry and starting, while bladed keys use a cut metal blade along with an encrypted chip. Your VIN tells us which type fits your 3 Series or 5 Series.
How do you confirm the right key for my BMW?
We use your VIN along with your model and year to confirm the correct key. We do not rely on guesses, and we verify ownership before making any key.
Do I need to tow my BMW to you?
No. We are fully mobile and come to the vehicle anywhere in Manhattan Beach. Call (323) 997-8867 to get started.
