Q: How much does a Hyundai or Kia key replacement cost?
A: Costs vary depending on the key type (basic key, smart key, fob), and whether you have an existing working key. Contact us for a free quote — usually significantly less than dealership prices.

Q: Can you replace a key when I’ve lost all my keys?
A: Yes — we specialize in “all keys lost” situations. We can cut and program a brand-new key for you on-site.

Q: Do you need my car’s VIN number or key code?
A: If available, your VIN or key code helps. But even if you don’t have it, we can usually work around it by reading the immobiliser system.

Q: Is the replacement key the same quality as the original?
A: We use high-quality blanks and OEM-level programming. The key will work just as the original one did (or better).

Don’t wait until you’re locked out or stressed — securing a spare key now can save time, money, and hassle later.
