We cut and program replacement keys and fobs right in your driveway — no tow to the dealer, no week-long wait.
📞 Call (850) 616-9273 Common QuestionsLost your only key, or had a fob stop working in the Publix lot on Eglin Parkway? Shalimar Locksmith cuts and programs replacement keys for most vehicles on-site — no tow to the dealership, no week-long wait. We carry blanks, transponder chips, and programming equipment in the truck and come to you anywhere in the Shalimar and Fort Walton Beach area.
The nearest dealerships are a haul down Highway 98 toward Fort Walton or up to Crestview, they often need the car towed in, and you'll usually wait days for a key to be ordered. We come to your driveway in Shalimar, Wright, or Mary Esther, make the key in the truck, and you drive away the same visit — frequently for less than the dealer quote.
If you lost all your keys we can still get you going — we generate a key from the lock or vehicle data. If you still have one working key, making a spare is faster and cheaper, so don't wait until you're down to the last one.

Yes. For most vehicles built after about 2000 we can generate a new key even when every key is lost — we cut and program to the vehicle on-site in your Shalimar driveway. Call (850) 616-9273 with the year, make, and model.
Yes. We carry programming equipment for most push-to-start and proximity-fob vehicles, including many newer imports. Give us the year/make/model and we'll confirm before we come out.
It depends entirely on the vehicle — a basic transponder key is far cheaper than a push-to-start smart fob. We give you the exact price on the phone before dispatch, never a surprise total in the driveway.
Often, yes. That can be a worn key, a failing ignition cylinder, or an immobilizer fault. We diagnose on-site and can cut a fresh key or service the ignition the same visit.
