In most cases, it involves dismantling onboard computers, removing plastic components from the vehicle, and requires extensive knowledge as well as a wide range of advanced tools.
The locksmith must extract data from the car’s computers—similar to retrieving information from the “Windows” operating system on your home computer.
Now, imagine what might happen if the locksmith doesn’t truly understand what they’re doing and accidentally deletes part of the system?You guessed it. In the best-case scenario, the car may not function properly. In the worst case, it may not start at all—and repairing that kind of issue can be extremely costly.
From the outset, it’s crucial to choose a locksmith based on their expertise rather than just the price—because going with the cheapest option can often end up costing you more in the long run.
Many of our clients at Shuki Locksmith have told us they had no idea what’s actually involved in duplicating luxury car keys, which is why we believe it’s so important to explain it clearly.
There’s a significant risk involved in duplicating keys for high-end vehicles, so it’s always best to turn to a professional automotive locksmith. You could order a key from the dealership, but that often means a long wait—sometimes up to a month—and you’ll end up paying full price.
In most cases, Shuki Locksmith can get the job done the same day you call. Usually, at a much better price too—making a skilled car locksmith like us the preferred choice for duplicating luxury car keys.
A professional locksmith can duplicate keys for high-end vehicles and even create new ones in the event of total key loss. We have the ability to come to you, wherever you are, and perform the work at any time of day.
But how can you tell who’s a truly professional car locksmith? Everyone claims to be an “expert” on Google, often accompanied by polished photos. The safest approach is to ask friends if they know a reliable locksmith, or to read reviews across various platforms.
