Spare Car Keys — Faster and Cheaper Than the Dealer
Car Key Duplication in Highlands Ranch
Need a spare car key? Colorado Dependable Locksmith duplicates car keys throughout Highlands Ranch and the Denver metro area. From standard metal keys to modern transponder and smart keys, we duplicate whatever key type your vehicle uses.
Standard vs. Transponder Key Duplication
Standard metal car keys (older vehicles) can be duplicated quickly and inexpensively—typically $50 to $100.
Transponder keys (1995+) require key cutting AND chip programming. Total cost typically $150 to $350 depending on your vehicle.
Smart keys / key fobs can be duplicated but require special blanks and programming. Typically $250 to $500+.
The Duplication Process
Bring your working key (or your vehicle) to our shop. We assess your key type, cut a blank to match your key's profile, and if it's a transponder key, program the chip to match your vehicle. The process takes 20-45 minutes for most vehicles.
Why Not the Dealership?
Dealerships charge significantly more and often require you to make an appointment. We offer walk-in service and same-day completion. Typical dealer cost is $200-$400+. Our cost is $150-$350 for the same service.
