Why Every Driver Needs a Spare Car Key

Most of the "lost all my keys" calls we get could have been a quick, inexpensive spare-key job a few weeks earlier. When you still have a working key, we copy the cut and clone or program the chip, so the new key opens the doors and starts the car just like the original.

We copy standard keys, transponder keys, laser-cut keys, remote-head keys and push-to-start smart keys. Visit the shop on Ehrlich Road or have us do it at your home or work.

What we handle

Spare Keys We Make

  • Transponder key copies
  • Remote-head key spares
  • Flip key spares
  • Push-to-start smart key spares
  • Laser-cut key copies
  • Valet and door-only keys
  • Spare keys for family cars and fleets

Spare Keys for Families and Fleets

Shared cars, teen drivers and work vehicles all go through keys. We can set up spares for several vehicles in one visit, which is handy for small businesses running vans or trucks.

How it works

Three Steps, One Visit

  1. Call or send the form

    Tell us what happened and, for cars, the year, make and model. We give you an honest price on the phone.

  2. We come to you

    A fully equipped Smart Locks van heads to your location, usually within 20 to 30 minutes in most of Tampa Bay.

  3. Job done on the spot

    Keys cut and programmed, doors opened or locks fitted at your location. You pay the price we quoted.

Questions

Spare Car Key Duplication FAQ

Is a spare cheaper than replacing a lost key?

Yes, considerably. Copying an existing key takes less time and work than originating a key when all keys are lost.

Will a copied key start my car?

Yes. We program or clone the chip, not just the blade, and test that the car starts before we leave.

Can I get a spare at your shop?

Yes, visit our shop at 5285 Ehrlich Rd, Tampa. Call ahead so we can make sure we have the right blank or fob.

I lost the only key to my car. After struggling with the car dealership, a tow company, and AAA, I found Smart Locks. Not only was the service quick (5 minutes to make two keys without an original) it was also professional and courteous. And the best part- around 1/2 the price the dealership was going to charge me for 1 key. I absolutely will call Smart Lock next time and will instantly recommend it to everyone else.

Outstanding customer service. Danny is reliable, quick and professional. He came out on a Sunday night to the airport and got us going again in a few short minutes. He was communicative, efficient, and a pleasure to work with. I cannot say enough good things about his service, and highly recommend him for your commercial and residential needs.

I'm extremely satisfied with smart locks, I went on vacation in Tampa, lost my rental car keys in the middle of the night, I called two other companies that was closed but Danny from smart locks was able to arrive within half an hour and make me a key in no time! Extremely fast, friendly and professional service, thank you Danny

I locked myself out of the car and left the keys on the front seat. Along with the car keys was my house key. After calling a few different locksmiths, I got in touch with Danny. He was personable, professional, and quick to respond. The price he quoted me beat everybody else's and he was able to get the job done super fast. Through it all he was able to display the kind of demeanor that would keep a client relaxed during a stressful situation.
