Though car keys come in many shapes and technical designs, they can generally be narrowed down to four categories and price ranges:
- Mechanical Key – your standard metal key. Pricing ranges from $50 to $100 depending on if you simply need a copy (duplication) or if we need to make a key without the benefit of a copy (origination).
- Chip Key – also known as a transponder or VATS key.
Pricing ranges from $100 to $150 depending on duplication or origination. - High Security Key – The latest generation of car keys that are laser cut with prices ranging from $150 to $300 and on some makes and models can exceed $500 all depending on duplication or origination.
- Proximity Key – Looks more like a keyless remote with
prices ranging from $100 to $200. We simply program the new proximity key to your car utilizing a specialized locksmith programming device.
These price ranges are approximations and can run higher if keyless remote commands are located on the key itself. Call Pop-A-Lock of Amarillo for a price quote…we believe you will be more than pleased with our prices and quick service.
