Losing the key to a Ford F-150 or Explorer is stressful, especially when the truck is parked at home, at work, or near the Las Tunas Drive business district. Many Ford keys carry a transponder tied to the Ford PATS anti-theft system, and newer models use Intelligent Access push-button keys. Because of that, a hardware store copy usually will not start the engine.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and we are mobile only. We have no shop for you to tow to. A technician drives to your Ford, confirms the right key for your vehicle using the VIN, and cuts and programs the replacement at the curb or in the driveway. That means no tow bill just to start the process.

How it works in Temple City

  1. 1

    Call and describe your Ford

    Call (323) 997-8867 any hour. Tell us the model, such as an F-150 or Explorer, the approximate year, where the vehicle is in Temple City, and whether you have any working key left.

  2. 2

    Verify ownership and VIN

    We ask for proof you own the vehicle and read the VIN, typically visible at the base of the windshield or on the door jamb. The VIN lets us confirm the correct key type for your exact Ford instead of guessing.

  3. 3

    We come to your vehicle

    Our mobile technician travels to your location, whether that is a home near Mission View Acres, a spot by Temple City Park, or a parking lot on Las Tunas Drive. Everything is done on site.

  4. 4

    Cut, program, and test

    We make the replacement key or smart key for your Ford, program it to the vehicle, and test it. For a bladed PATS key we check the lock and ignition operation, and for push-button Intelligent Access keys we check starting and remote functions.

  5. 5

    Add a spare while we are there

    If you are down to one key or none, we recommend having a spare made during the same visit. It is usually simpler than starting over after the next loss.

What affects the price

Ford keys across Temple City

Temple City is known as the Home of the Camellias, and Ford trucks and SUVs are a common sight here, from F-150s parked in driveways around Mission View Acres to Explorers running errands along Downtown Las Tunas Drive. When a key goes missing, we meet you where the vehicle is, whether that is at home, in a shop lot, or near the Camellia area.

We serve ZIP code 91780 and the surrounding area around the clock, including during busy days around the Camellia Festival, or after an afternoon at Temple City Park or Live Oak Park when keys end up lost or locked in. Our technicians also handle home and business lock needs in the area, such as commercial rekeys for Las Tunas Drive storefronts and turnover rekeys for property managers, so one call to (323) 997-8867 covers your car and your property.

Ford keys in Temple City — FAQs

What if I lost all my keys to my Ford F-150 or Explorer?
We can make a new key from scratch using your VIN and proof of ownership. Call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to your vehicle in Temple City to cut and program it on site.
Can you make a spare Ford key so I am not stranded again?
Yes. Making a spare while you still have a working key is usually the easiest route. We come to you, and you can keep the spare somewhere safe. Call (323) 997-8867 to schedule.
What if I do not have my original key?
You do not need the original. We use the VIN and your ownership documents to identify the right key for your Ford, then cut and program a new one at your vehicle.
What is the difference between a push-button and a bladed Ford key?
A bladed key has a metal blade and a transponder that works with Ford PATS. A push-button Intelligent Access key lets you start the vehicle without inserting a blade. Which one your Ford uses depends on the model and year.
How do you confirm the correct key for my Ford?
We read the VIN and check it against the vehicle to confirm the key type. We do not guess from the model name alone, because the same model can use different keys across years.
Do I have to tow my truck to a shop?
No. We are fully mobile and do the work where the vehicle is parked in Temple City, so there is no need to tow it anywhere.
Are you available at night and on weekends?
Yes, we operate 24/7. Call (323) 997-8867 at any hour and we will talk through your Ford key situation and the next steps.
