A Ford key is more than cut metal. Most modern Fords use a transponder system Ford calls PATS, which has to recognize the key before the engine will run. Many newer Explorers and some F-150s use Intelligent Access push-button keys, which are a different style of key entirely. Losing one, snapping a blade, or having a fob die can leave a truck stuck in a driveway or a work yard.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and we are mobile only. There is no shop to tow your Ford to. We bring the equipment to you in Santa Fe Springs, confirm the correct key for your truck or SUV using the VIN, and get you back on the road. That covers lost keys, adding a spare, and all-keys-lost situations.
How it works in Santa Fe Springs
- 1
Call and describe the situation
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us the model, the year, and whether you have any working key. We will ask about your location and whether the vehicle is a bladed PATS key or a push-button Intelligent Access model.
- 2
Verify ownership and confirm by VIN
We check your ID and proof of ownership, then use the VIN to confirm the correct key type for your specific Ford. We do not guess from the model name alone, since key styles vary within a model.
- 3
We come to your vehicle
Our mobile technician drives to your Ford, whether it is at a home, a business lot, or a work yard. Everything needed to cut and program is in the van.

Cut, program, and test
We make the new key, program it to the vehicle, and test the door, ignition or push-button start, and any remote functions before we finish. If you want a spare, it is easiest to add it during the same visit.
What affects the price
- Key type: a basic transponder bladed key differs from an Intelligent Access push-button key in cost.
- Situation: adding a spare when you still have a working key is usually simpler than an all-keys-lost job.
- Quantity: programming more than one key in a single visit is typically more efficient than separate trips.
- Vehicle year and trim: the exact system on your F-150 or Explorer, confirmed by VIN, affects what is required.
- Timing and location: after-hours calls and hard-to-reach spots can affect the final quote.
Ford keys across Santa Fe Springs
Santa Fe Springs has a mix of residential streets and heavy commercial activity, and we see Ford trucks and SUVs in both. In Los Nietos and around the Heritage Park district, the typical call is a homeowner who has lost an Explorer key or needs a spare before the only one goes missing. We can meet you in a driveway or near Heritage Park, Town Center Hall, or the Santa Fe Springs Swap Meet if your key goes missing while you are out.
In the Santa Fe Springs Industrial District along the Telegraph Rd and Shoemaker Ave corridor, work trucks and fleet vehicles are the norm. A delivery fleet may need duplicate transponder keys cut, or a lockout solved on an F-150 in the middle of a shift, and we handle that on site so the truck is not sidelined. We serve ZIP codes 90670 and 90671, and the same mobile service covers businesses that also need rekeying or master-key work while we are there.
