A BMW key is more than a piece of metal. Most 3 Series and 5 Series keys carry encrypted electronics that must be matched to your car, and many owners use Comfort Access so the car unlocks and starts without the key leaving a pocket or purse. When one of those keys goes missing, a dealer tow and a long wait are not your only option.

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 to: we drive to your BMW in San Marino, whether it is parked at home, at work, or on Huntington Drive. We handle lost keys, added spares, and all-keys-lost situations, and we confirm the exact key for your car by VIN before we cut or program anything.

How it works in San Marino

  1. 1

    Call and share your vehicle details

    Call (323) 997-8867 any hour. Tell us your BMW model and year, where the car is parked in San Marino, and whether you have any working key. We will explain what to expect and what we need from you.

  2. 2

    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 3 Series or 5 Series. This keeps us from guessing at a key that may not suit your car.

  3. 3

    Come to your BMW

    Our technician drives to your vehicle with the equipment needed. There is no tow and no trip to a shop, so your car stays where it is.

  4. 4

    Cut, program, and test

    We prepare the new key for your car, whether it is a push-button smart key for Comfort Access or a bladed style, and set it up to work with the vehicle. We then test locking, unlocking, and starting before we finish.

  5. 5

    Add a spare while we are there

    If you are down to one key or none, we can make an extra so you are not caught out again. Keeping a spare is much easier than starting from an all-keys-lost situation.

What affects the price

BMW keys across San Marino

San Marino drivers often park near some of the area's best-known spots, and we regularly serve BMW owners around the Huntington Library district, the Lacy Park neighborhood, and the Mission District along Huntington Drive. If you misplaced your key during a visit to The Huntington, a walk in Lacy Park, or a stop near El Molino Viejo or the Crowell Public Library, we can meet you at your car instead of making you find a ride.

We serve ZIP code 91108 and the surrounding area around the clock. Our work in San Marino extends beyond cars, too. We have rekeyed original mortise locks on a 1920s period-revival estate near the Huntington while keeping the vintage brass hardware, and we have re-pinned exterior doors and garden gates on large properties to a single key. That attention to detail is the same care we bring to your BMW. For help, call (323) 997-8867.

BMW keys in San Marino — FAQs

What if I lost all my BMW keys in San Marino?
An all-keys-lost situation can still be handled on site. We come to your car, verify ownership, confirm the correct key by VIN, and make a new key for it. Call (323) 997-8867 any time.
Can you make a spare BMW key?
Yes. Adding a spare is easier and usually less hassle than replacing keys after they are all gone. We can add one at your location in San Marino. Call (323) 997-8867 to set it up.
Can you make a key if I have no original?
Yes. Without an original key we work from your VIN and proof of ownership to determine the right key for your 3 Series or 5 Series. We then prepare and program it at your vehicle.
What is the difference between a push-button key and a bladed key?
A push-button smart key supports Comfort Access, so the car can unlock and start with the key nearby. A bladed key uses a physical blade and also contains encrypted electronics. The right one for your car depends on its model and year.
How do you confirm which key my BMW needs?
We use your VIN to confirm the key type for your specific car. That way we are not guessing based on the model name alone, and we can identify the right key for your 3 Series or 5 Series.
Do I need to tow my BMW to you?
No. We are fully mobile and come to wherever your car is parked in San Marino, including near the Huntington Library or Lacy Park. No tow is needed in most cases.
Do you work nights and weekends?
Yes, we are available 24/7. Call (323) 997-8867 whenever you lose a key or get locked out, day or night.
