What to expect

Ford keys, in plain terms

Ranger and Everest proximity keys are the common job now; Falcon and Territory owners are usually after a transponder key or a remote that has stopped responding. Ranger keys in particular changed generation partway through, so the build year decides which key is programmed.

Not sure which is yours? Pick “I’m not sure” on the form below and your locksmith will identify it.

So we can call you back with a firm price.

Optional — but it is how we send you the price, with a button to accept it and pick a time. Without it we have to ring you.

Optional — but the more we know, the more accurate the price.

Optional, and the single thing most likely to get you a firm price without anyone coming out. The lock, the door, and the key if you have it.

Questions

Ford keys — the usual questions

Can you make a Ford key if I've lost all of them?

Usually, yes. With no key to copy, the key is cut and coded to the vehicle itself, which is a longer job than cutting a spare but does not need a tow to the dealer. We need to see proof the vehicle is yours and photo ID before anything is cut — that requirement is not negotiable, and it is the same rule that stops someone else asking for a key to your car.

Do you come to me, or do I bring the Ford to you?

We come to you. The van carries the cutting and programming equipment, so the job is done wherever the car is parked — home, work, a shopping centre car park or the roadside. We reach most of Melbourne within 15–25 minutes.

How much does a Ford key cost?

It depends on the key your car takes — a plain metal key, a remote-head key and a proximity key are three different jobs. Tell us the model and year and you will be given the price for your car before anyone starts. We do not quote a figure we have not worked out for your vehicle.

Do I have to go to a Ford dealer?

Often not. We cut and program keys where the car is parked. Some models and years are harder, and a few may need a dealer. Tell us the model and year and we will say which yours is before we come out.

How long does a Ford key take?

Most spare-key jobs are done inside an hour on site. A lost-all-keys job takes longer because the key has to be coded to the car from scratch. Which one yours is depends on the car and on how many keys are left, and it is settled on site.

Is the Ford key guaranteed?

Yes — SB Locksmith backs every job with a 1 year warranty on parts and labour. If the key stops working within that time, we come back.
