Locksmith Liberty’s mobile automotive locksmiths open locked cars, cut and program transponder and smart keys, and repair ignitions anywhere in Los Angeles, 24 hours a day. Dispatch to Mid-Wilshire, Koreatown and Hollywood is fast at any hour. A car lockout is quoted upfront by phone, and key replacement usually runs less than the dealer.
Our vans carry key blanks, transponder programmers and lockout tools for Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Ford, Chevrolet, Mazda, Lexus, BMW, Audi and Volkswagen, which covers most of what is parked on the streets of Los Angeles. We come to you: the parking structure at The Grove or LACMA, a metered spot on 6th Street in Koreatown, a driveway in Hancock Park or a beach lot in Santa Monica.
We have been doing this work in Los Angeles for over 10 years. Every technician is licensed and insured, and we verify ownership with your registration or insurance card and photo ID before cutting a key or opening a door.
Pricing is by the job: lockouts by vehicle, keys by key type including programming. You get one firm upfront quote by phone before any work begins. For a deeper look at key types and costs see our car key replacement page.
Keys locked in the car, keys lost after a night out on Western Avenue, a fob that died in the Farmers Market lot: these are the daily calls. We unlock doors with wedges, long-reach tools and Lishi picks without damaging the paint, weather stripping or the lock. If a child or pet is inside, tell the dispatcher and we prioritize the call.
Cars, SUVs, pickups, box trucks and motorcycles, including vehicles with deadlocking and high security locks. Non-destructive entry in nearly every case.
Lost all your keys? We cut a new key from the vehicle’s VIN and key code, then program it on site in one visit, with no tow to a dealership. Laser cut, sidewinder and switchblade flip keys included. Read how a car key is programmed without the original.
Remote head keys and separate fobs are programmed to your car on the spot. We can also add a spare remote so a lost one can be deleted from the vehicle’s memory.
Transponder chip keys and push-to-start smart keys are cloned or programmed with dealer-level equipment at 15 to 30 percent less than dealer pricing, for both domestic and import models.
A key that will not turn, sticks, or needs a wiggle of the steering wheel is a worn ignition cylinder or a worn key. We repair or replace the cylinder and cut a fresh key from the code so the problem does not come back.
If your ignition key does not open the doors or trunk on a used car, we cut door and trunk keys from the lock, or rekey the ignition so one key operates everything.
For Ford and Lincoln keypad entry we retrieve the factory code and program personal codes, then show you how to add and delete them.
We cut and program keys for motorcycles and scooters (Honda, Yamaha, Kymco, Vespa), and set up keyed-alike or fleet key programs for delivery vans and company cars. Businesses can pair this with our commercial locksmith services for the building.
Call (213) 314-1971 with your make, model, year and location. Dispatch confirms the price and arrival window, and the technician calls when they are five minutes out. We serve Mid-Wilshire and Miracle Mile, Koreatown, Hollywood and West Hollywood, Beverly Grove, Culver City and Santa Monica around the clock. For lockouts that also involve a home or business, our emergency locksmith handles both in one visit.
A standard car lockout is priced by the job with Locksmith Liberty, depending on the vehicle and time of day, and the price is confirmed by phone before dispatch. We open the door with non-destructive tools, so there is no damage to the paint, window or lock. Dispatch across central Los Angeles is fast at any hour.

Usually 15 to 30 percent cheaper, and much faster: dealers often need the car towed in and a day or more to order the key. We carry blanks and programming tools for most Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Ford, GM, Mazda, Lexus, BMW, Audi and VW models on the van.
