Key types

Mercury Keys & How We Program Them

Mercury was Ford's sister brand until 2011, and its cars are close relatives of Fords: the Grand Marquis shares with the Crown Victoria, the Mariner with the Escape and the Milan with the Fusion. They use Ford's PATS immobilizer, so keys need cutting and programming.

  • PATS transponder keys
  • Remote fobs
  • Ignition and door lock repair

Serving Tampa Bay

Mercury Locksmith Serving Hillsborough, Pinellas & Pasco

Grand Marquis and Mariner owners tend to keep their cars a long time, so worn keys, worn ignitions and spare keys are the usual calls.

Unlock Mercury Cars

Locked out of your Mercury? Don't break a window and don't wait hours for a tow. We open Mercury cars, trucks and SUVs with professional tools that leave no marks, including trunks and keys locked in a running car. See car lockout service.

Mercury Keys Made On Site

Lost every Mercury key? We look up the key code, cut the blade on our van-mounted machine and program the chip or remote to your car on the spot. Customers often tell us it took less time than the dealer wanted to book an appointment. See car key replacement.

Mercury Key Duplication

Don't wait until the last key is gone. A spare Mercury key made from a working one costs a fraction of an all-keys-lost job and takes minutes. Most families with one key for a shared car end up calling us eventually, so a spare is cheap insurance.

Transponder, Laser-Cut & Smart Mercury Keys

Most Mercury vehicles built in the last 25 years need a chipped key before the engine will run. We cut and program transponder keys, high-security laser-cut blades and push-to-start proximity keys with the same class of equipment the dealer uses.

Mercury Remotes & Key Fobs

Remote stopped working or bought one online? We stock remotes for common Mercury models and program key fobs on site. If a fob just needs a new battery, we'll tell you rather than sell you a new one.

Mercury Key Shell Replacement

A cracked case doesn't mean a dead key. If the electronics still work, we transfer them into a new shell and cut a fresh blade, which costs much less than a new programmed key.

Mercury Ignition Repair & Door Locks

When a key won't turn, sticks in the ignition or the cylinder spins freely, we repair or replace the ignition at your car. We also fix damaged door and trunk locks and key them to match, much cheaper than dealer replacement.

Lost or Stolen Mercury Keys? Rekey the Car

If your keys were stolen, we can delete the missing keys from your Mercury's computer so they no longer start the car, and rekey the locks if needed. Your new keys work; the old ones don't.

Questions

Mercury Key FAQ

Are Mercury keys the same as Ford keys?

Very similar: Mercury used Ford's PATS system, so we program them the same way.

How much does a Mercury key replacement cost?

It depends on the year, model and key type. As a guide, standard keys start around $90 to $140, transponder keys usually run $120 to $220, and smart fobs and push-to-start keys range from $180 to $400 including programming. Call with your year and model and we'll give you the exact price before we come out.

Can you make a Mercury key if I lost all my keys?

Yes, for most Mercury models. With the VIN and proof of ownership we cut and program a new key at your car, even with no original to copy.

Do I need to tow my Mercury to the dealer?

No. Our vans carry the key machines and programmers, so we make and program Mercury keys wherever the car is: your driveway, a parking lot or the roadside.

What do I need to have ready?

Your ID and proof of ownership (registration or title), and the VIN if it is handy. It is on the driver-side dashboard and on your registration.

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.
