A lost Ford key is a big headache when you depend on your truck or SUV for work, errands and the commute along Paramount Boulevard. Whether you drive an F-150 or an Explorer, today's Ford keys are more than cut metal. Many contain a transponder tied to the Ford PATS anti-theft system, and others are push-button Intelligent Access keys that talk to the vehicle electronically. Replacing one means the new key must be matched to your specific vehicle.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and we are fully mobile. We have no shop for you to get towed to. Our technician comes to your Ford wherever it is parked in Paramount, whether that's at home, at work or in a parking lot, and handles lost-key, spare-key and all-keys-lost situations right there.
How it works in Paramount
- 1
Call and share your Ford details

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 a PATS transponder key or a push-button Intelligent Access key.

Cut, program and test
We prepare the new key, program it to your vehicle and test it thoroughly. Bladed keys are checked for door and ignition operation, and push-button keys for locking, unlocking and starting.
What affects the price
- Key type: a basic transponder key and a push-button Intelligent Access key are priced differently
- Whether you still have a working key (adding a spare) or have lost every key
- Model and model year of your F-150 or Explorer, which affect the key style and programming needs
- Number of keys you want made in the same visit
- Time of day and how urgent the call is, since we operate 24/7
Ford keys across Paramount
Paramount drivers are spread out between the historic Clearwater and Hynes neighborhoods, the shops along the Paramount Boulevard corridor, and the busy areas around the Paramount Swap Meet and Progress Park. Lots of F-150s and Explorers here are daily workhorses, hauling tools to job sites, loading up for the swap meet, or shuttling the family, so a missing key costs real time. We come to wherever the vehicle is, including the 90723 ZIP code.
If your key goes missing in a swap-meet lot, a business-district parking space near the Zamboni Company headquarters, or your driveway in Clearwater, call us and we'll meet you there. Because we are mobile, we can often handle the vehicle key and your other lock needs in a single trip, so just ask when you call.
