About This Service
What Is Car Key Duplication?
Car key duplication is the process of creating a copy of an existing car key. This is done while the original key is present and functional. Having a spare key is a practical way to avoid lockout situations and provides a backup if the original key is lost or damaged. The ability to duplicate a car key depends on the vehicle make, model, year, and key type. Standard mechanical car keys can generally be duplicated. Transponder keys and key fobs involve electronic components that may require specific expertise. Dokey Locksmith Services will assess your key and vehicle details and advise on what is possible.
