A dead or missing key fob has a way of showing up at the worst moment: in the Promenade on the Peninsula parking area after dinner, at a trailhead near the equestrian bridle trails, or in your own driveway before the morning commute up Hawthorne Boulevard. Modern remotes and proximity keys are small computers, and replacing one is more than cutting a piece of metal. The new fob has to be matched to your vehicle's security system before the car will accept it.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and we are fully mobile. There is no shop to tow your car to. We bring the equipment to wherever the vehicle is parked in Rolling Hills Estates, and we work around the clock, so a lost key at night does not have to wait until morning.

This page explains how a fob replacement typically goes, what affects the cost, and what to have ready. Every vehicle is different, so we are glad to talk through your situation by phone at (323) 997-8867 before anyone drives out.

How it works in Rolling Hills Estates

  1. 1

    Tell us the vehicle and the situation

    When you call, we ask for the make, model, and year, and whether you have any working key left. Whether you are adding a spare or replacing every key you own changes the approach, so this first conversation shapes the job.

  2. 2

    We come to your vehicle

    Because we are mobile, we meet you where the car is, whether that is a home in Chandler Ranch, a condo lot off Silver Spur Road, or a parking space in Peninsula Center. You do not need to tow or drive the car anywhere.

  3. 3

    Verify ownership

    Before creating a new key for a vehicle, we confirm that you are the owner or authorized user. Expect to show identification and proof of ownership such as registration or title. This protects you against someone else getting a key to your car.

  4. 4

    Prepare the replacement fob

    Depending on the vehicle, the new fob may need a cut emergency blade, a transponder, or just electronic programming. We match the fob to your vehicle's requirements rather than guessing.

  5. 5

    Program and remove lost keys if needed

    We pair the new fob with the car's computer. If a fob was lost or stolen, we can discuss clearing old keys from the system where the vehicle allows it, so the missing one no longer starts the car.

  6. 6

    Test everything before we leave

    We check lock and unlock, trunk or hatch buttons, remote features, and starting the engine. You should be handed a fob that works, not one that mostly works.

What affects the price

  • Vehicle make, model, and year, since some brands use far more complex security systems than others
  • Type of key: a basic remote head key, a flip key, or a push-button smart or proximity key
  • Whether you have a working key to copy from or every key is lost, which changes the programming method
  • Whether the fob is an original-manufacturer part or a quality aftermarket alternative
  • Time of day and location, since we operate 24/7 and travel to you
  • Number of keys needed, including spares and removal of old lost keys from the vehicle

Key Fob Replacement across Rolling Hills Estates

Rolling Hills Estates is a car-dependent community, and its mix of hillside homes, shopping, and horse country means fobs get lost in very different places. In neighborhoods like Dapplegray and Georgeff Canyon, keys can slip out of a pocket around stables, trails, or large lots. In Chandler Ranch and the newer gated-community homes, a spare fob is often the difference between a quick fix and a long wait for help at the gate.

Commercial and retail areas matter too. Peninsula Center and the Promenade on the Peninsula, off Deep Valley Drive, draw shoppers, diners, and office workers who may misplace a fob in a parking lot or break one on a busy day. We also meet residents of condos and townhomes near Silver Spur Road, where parking is often shared or assigned and a stuck car can block a neighbor.

We serve both ZIP codes in the city, 90274 and 90275, and reach drivers along Hawthorne Boulevard, Palos Verdes Drive North, Crenshaw Boulevard, and Silver Spur Road. Wherever you are in Rolling Hills Estates, call (323) 997-8867 and we will talk through the job.

Key Fob Replacement in Rolling Hills Estates — FAQs

Can you replace a key fob if I have lost all my keys?
Often, yes. Many vehicles allow a new key to be created and programmed without an existing one, though the process differs by make and model. 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 come to your vehicle in Rolling Hills Estates, whether it is at home, at Peninsula Center, or in a parking lot.
Do you work at night and on weekends?
Yes, we are available 24/7. Lost fobs do not keep business hours, and neither do we.
What do I need to show to prove the car is mine?
Expect to provide a valid photo ID and proof of ownership or authorization, such as registration or title. We verify this before making a key for any vehicle.
Can a lost fob be disabled so no one else can use it?
On many vehicles, yes. When we program a new key we can discuss erasing old keys from the car's memory. Ask when you call (323) 997-8867 so we can check your vehicle.
Can you replace a smart key or push-button start fob, not just a basic remote?
Yes, we work with remote head keys, flip keys, and smart or proximity keys. Some newer models have more demanding requirements, so give us the year and model for a clear answer.
Is it better to get a spare before I lose the only one?
Generally yes. Copying from a working key is usually simpler than starting from no keys. If you live near the trails in Dapplegray or park often at the Promenade, a spare is worth having.
How do I get a price for a fob replacement?
Cost depends on the vehicle, the type of fob, how many keys you need, and your situation. We do not guess in advance without details, so call (323) 997-8867 and we will walk through what applies to your car.
