Looking to get additional keys made for a Ford, but the dealership wants and arm+leg for the key, fob and programming.  I've heard that some locksmiths are able to re-key and program Fords.

 

Morris/Essex preferable but really anywhere within reasonable driving distance.

 

Thanks.

 

 

I'm pretty sure that any hardware store can program those keys now.

Avenel locksmith on Rahway. Ave in avenel can do it. It's my father's shop

If it's a key or a lock, Maffeys in Elizabeth can do it.

Try Able Security in Roxbury NJ (Morris County) http://www.ablesecuritylocksmiths.com/

Thanks everyone.  Appreciate it.

Actually, Home Depot can do key and fobs these days, though not for every car. Your best bet is to either call (though most key booths at the HD's don't have phones in them) or simply stop in and talk to the key person (IIRC it's Jingles) not a regular HD employee.

Goto a local pro and forget the big box hardware stores for keys. I made that mistake once for a simple deadbolt key. They got it wrong twice. Didn't bother to go back a third time, local guy got it right as expected.

Let me tell you something, Liquidskin. The "pro" locksmiths get it wrong too. I had a simple KW1 house key that the local "pro" couldn't get it right the 2 times I went back there. I jokingly told the guy I'd cut the key myself if I could since I worked in a h/w store and cut keys almost every day for the several years I was there. He actually let me cut the key and it came out fine. I've even made keys with a simple file. So, my point is that it's not where but who/what (100% computer controlled) cuts the key.
