Losing the only key to a Ford F-150 or Explorer is stressful, whether you are parked near Mission West antique row, at the Metro A Line Mission station, or in your own driveway. Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and we come to the vehicle with the equipment to cut and program replacement keys on site. There is no towing and no trip to a dealership.

Ford trucks and SUVs commonly use PATS transponder keys or Intelligent Access push-button systems, depending on model and year. We never guess which one you have. We confirm the correct key using your VIN and proof of ownership, then make and program it for your vehicle. That applies to a spare when you still have one working key, and to an all-keys-lost situation when you have none.

How it works in South Pasadena

  1. 1

    Call and share your vehicle details

    Call (323) 997-8867 any hour and tell us where the Ford is parked, the model, and the approximate year. Have the VIN ready, which is visible at the base of the windshield or on the driver door jamb sticker.

  2. 2

    We come to your Ford

    Our mobile technician drives to your location in South Pasadena, whether that is a street spot, a lot, or a driveway. Everything happens at the vehicle.

  3. 3

    Verify ownership and confirm the key by VIN

    We check your ID and proof of ownership, then use the VIN to identify the correct key type for your truck or SUV, whether a PATS-style bladed key or an Intelligent Access push-button key.

  4. 4

    Cut, program, and test

    We make the new key, program it to your Ford, and test it thoroughly: starting the engine, locking and unlocking, and the remote functions where applicable. We can also add a spare while we are there.

What affects the price

Ford keys across South Pasadena

South Pasadena is a walkable, historic community, and Ford owners here get stuck in all kinds of places: the Mission Street District near the antique shops and restaurants, the lot near the Rialto Theatre, the Metro A Line Mission station, Garfield Park, or the South Pasadena Farmers Market. We come to the vehicle in ZIP 91030 and 91031, so you never have to move a truck without a key.

The hillside streets of Monterey Hills and Altos de Monterey bring their own challenges, with narrow roads and driveways where a tow would be a hassle. A mobile locksmith avoids that completely. Whether you lost a key after an afternoon at Fair Oaks Pharmacy or locked a spare inside your Explorer at home, call (323) 997-8867 and we will bring the tools to you.

Ford keys in South Pasadena — FAQs

What if I lost all the keys to my Ford F-150 or Explorer?
We can help with all-keys-lost situations. We confirm ownership, identify the correct key by VIN, then cut and program a new key at your vehicle in South Pasadena. Call (323) 997-8867 any time.
Can you make a spare Ford key before I lose my only one?
Yes, and it is usually the easier route. With a working key available, adding a spare is typically simpler and less costly than replacing everything after losing the last one. Call (323) 997-8867 to schedule.
I do not have an original key. Can you still make one?
Yes. You do not need an original key. We verify your ID and proof of ownership, use the VIN to determine the correct key, and make a new one on site.
What is the difference between a bladed PATS key and an Intelligent Access key?
A PATS key is generally a bladed key with a transponder that lets the engine start. An Intelligent Access key is a push-button style fob that works with keyless entry and push-button start. Which one your Ford uses depends on the model and year.
How do you know which key my Ford needs?
We use your VIN to confirm the correct key type for your specific vehicle rather than guessing from the model name alone. That helps ensure the key we make is the right one.
Do I need to bring my Ford anywhere?
No. We are fully mobile and come to your vehicle, whether it is on Mission Street, in Monterey Hills, or in a parking lot.
