Car Key Replacement Services

Yes. We need to verify you have a legal claim to the vehicle in order for us to help you regain access or create a new car key. For car lockouts, we typically need your driver’s license plus vehicle registration, insurance card, or title as proof of ownership. If you don’t have these documents with you during a lockout emergency in Westminster, Arvada, or anywhere in the Denver metro area, we may accept alternative verification methods such as matching your ID address to vehicle registration databases or having a registered owner present. For new car key creation, we generally require photo ID, vehicle title or registration. However, if the car is not yours, you can obtain the necessary proof/documents and approval from the rightful owner in order to provide you with the service.
