Losing your only car key or dealing with a broken fob can be stressful — and expensive. Most people’s first thought is to call the dealership. But here’s the secret: an automotive locksmith in Denver can often do the exact same job faster and at a fraction of the cost.
At Colorado Automotive Key Solutions, LLC, we specialize in car keys, fobs, and programming — the very services dealerships charge a premium for. Here’s why choosing a locksmith can keep more money in your pocket:
1. Dealerships Charge Separately for Key, Cutting, and Programming
When you go to a dealership, the bill usually includes:
- Cost of the key or fob
- Cost of cutting the key
- Cost of programming it to your car
- Plus towing if your car can’t be driven
By the time it’s all added up, you may be looking at $400–$800 or more depending on the make and model.
Our Difference: At Colorado Automotive Key Solutions, cutting and programming are always included at no extra cost. You pay once, not three or four times.
2. No Towing Fees
If you’ve lost all your keys, the dealership will often require you to tow the vehicle to them — which can add another $100–$250 to your bill.
Our Solution: As a mobile locksmith service, we come to you. No towing, no added hassle.
3. Faster Service
Dealerships typically require an appointment, sometimes waiting days or even weeks for the service.
Our Advantage: No appointment required. Most keys are kept in stock, so we can cut, program, and hand you a working key the same day.
4. Local, Mobile, and Colorado-Focused
We’re based right here in Colorado and cover areas within about an hour of Denver. Whether you’re in Aurora, Lakewood, Boulder, or nearby, we bring dealership-level service directly to you — without the dealership price tag.
