Bay Area Lock And Key delivers exactly that — fully-mobile car key replacement service backed by licensed, insured technicians and honest, upfront pricing.
Lost, broke or need a spare car key? Our mobile car key replacement makes and programs keys for most vehicles right at your location — no dealership visit and no tow. We cut mechanical keys, program transponder chips, replace remote head keys and flip keys, and pair proximity and push-to-start smart keys to your car.
Why Lafayette Chooses Bay Area Lock And Key for Car Key Replacement
Lafayette customers choose us because we combine big-company reliability with local, personal service.

We quote before we work, we finish in one visit whenever we can, and we stand behind everything we do.
Dealerships often charge premium prices and require you to tow the vehicle in, then wait days. We come to you, usually the same day, and handle even 'all keys lost' cases by originating a new key to your vehicle and deleting old ones from memory. Making a spare now is far cheaper than an emergency replacement after you've lost your last key.
