Questions We Hear at the Counter
Can I just walk in?
Yes. The shop is at 4556 S Manhattan Ave in South Tampa, open Monday through Saturday, 8am to 8pm, and closed Sunday. Walk-ins are welcome.
Which car keys and fobs can you make?
We cut and program keys, fobs and smart keys for most makes and models, including laser-cut keys. New keys for 2015-and-newer Mercedes-Benz and Sprinter vans come from the dealer only, and we'll tell you that up front. See car keys by make.
Should I rekey or replace my locks?
If your locks work and you only need old keys to stop working, a rekey is usually enough. If a lock is worn, damaged or you want an upgrade, replace it. Our guide on rekeying vs. replacing locks walks through it.
