Car keys, fobs & locks — done where your car is

Lost your only key? Need a spare for the family? Locked out? We're a fully mobile automotive locksmith based in McKinney: we cut and program your key on site, for most makes and models — and we open cars, homes and businesses too.

From $49 Exact quote by message before we come out. Your final price depends on your car's year, make, model and the type of key it uses.

What we do

Car keys made & programmed

Transponder keys (chip keys)
Remote head keys, flip keys & fobiks
Smart keys & push-start fobs — including Toyota & Lexus
All keys lost? We can still make one
Spares & duplicates while you still have a working key

Lockouts — car, home & business

Locked out? We open cars, houses and commercial spaces without damage, 24/7 subject to availability. Message your location and what's locked — the closer you are to McKinney, the faster we're there.

Home & business locks

New locks, lock changes and keypad (keyless-entry) locks installed for homes and businesses — including high-security commercial keypad models. Tell us the door and we'll quote the job.

How pricing works

From $49exact price confirmed by message

A basic transponder key and a push-start smart key are very different jobs, so we don't publish one flat price that would be wrong for most cars. Message us your year, make and model and you get the real price for your car before we drive out — the price we quote is the price you pay.

Dealer key replacement typically means a tow, a parts order and a much bigger bill. We bring the key, the cutter and the programmer to your car instead.

Good to know

Already bought a key online?We offer programming-only service for customer-supplied keys — ask for the price for your model

All keys lostStill doable on most models — it just takes a little longer than a duplicate

Push-start / smart key carsYes — including Toyota and Lexus smart keys

PaymentPay when the key is cut, programmed and tested in your car

How it works

Three messages and you're driving

Step 1

Message us the car

On WhatsApp or with the request form: year, make, model — and whether you still have a working key or lost them all. Add your city.

Step 2

Get the exact price

We confirm the price and a time window. No quote games, no "we'll see when we get there."

Step 3

We come to the car

Key cut and programmed on site with professional equipment — at your home, work or wherever the car sits.

Step 4

Test it, then pay

You start the car and test the remote yourself before paying. Done — most jobs in one visit.

RestorationBringing an older or neglected fireplace back to safe, good-looking condition

Remodels & upgradesVisual updates that change how the whole room feels — ask us what's possible with yours

Not sure what it needs?That's exactly what the free inspection is for

Why clean it

What a cleaning & inspection actually does

Removes creosote buildup

Every wood fire leaves creosote inside the flue. It builds up quietly over seasons — and it's flammable. A proper sweep removes it before it becomes a chimney-fire risk.

Catches small problems early

Cracks, damaged mortar, blockages and worn components are cheap to fix when they're small. The free inspection tells you where your chimney stands before a small issue turns into a rebuild.

Better fires, less smoke

A clean flue drafts the way it should: fires light easier, burn cleaner, and smoke goes up the chimney instead of into your living room.

How it works

From message to warm fire

Step 1

Message us

Tell us your city and, if you can, send a photo of your fireplace. Gas or wood-burning — both welcome.

Step 2

We clean — $99

Full cleaning of the chimney and fireplace, with your home kept tidy while we work.

Step 3

Free inspection

We inspect the system and tell you plainly what shape it's in — good, or in need of attention.

Step 4

You decide

Any repair, restoration or upgrade is quoted in writing first. You approve it, or you don't — the cleaning is yours either way.

Drag the handle on the photo — that's our own test car, a 2016 Nissan Versa Note, restored here in McKinney.

Nissan Versa Note headlight before restoration — yellowed and cloudy

The same headlight after restoration — clear and transparent

Before After

↔

Before After

Same headlight, same day. The lens was only lightly yellowed on this car — the worse the yellowing, the bigger the change.

Why it matters

Yellow headlights aren't just ugly — they're dim

22%

of the light output of new headlights is all that deteriorated headlights produced in AAA's lab tests — roughly 80% of your night vision, gone.

Source: AAA study of ~11-year-old sedans

~70%

of light output is what restoration recovered in the same AAA tests. A new OEM assembly gets 100% — at new-assembly prices (below).

Source: AAA

12.8 yrs

is the average age of vehicles on U.S. roads in 2025 — a record high. Factory UV coating starts failing at 3–5 years, faster under the Texas sun, so most cars around you are already in the cloudy zone.

Source: S&P Global Mobility, May 2025

How it works

The vapor method, step by step

This is not a wipe-on polish. The oxidized layer is physically removed, then the lens is re-cleared with polymer vapor that melts and levels the surface back to transparent.

Step 1

Mask & protect

The paint and trim around the lens are taped off so nothing but the headlight gets touched.

Step 2

Multi-grit wet sanding

Progressive sanding removes the yellowed, oxidized layer and levels the surface — this is the step the cheap kits skip.

Step 3

Polymer vapor re-clear

Heated polymer vapor fuses a new clear layer onto the lens, filling the fine sanding marks. This is the dramatic "watch it turn clear" step from the videos.

Step 4

Optional ceramic UV boost

Add a ceramic UV layer (+$30–$60) for extra protection against the Texas sun — the same upsell established DFW detailers charge for.

Headlight masked with green tape, mid-sanding — the lens turned uniformly matte — Mid-process: after wet sanding, the lens looks matte white. That's normal — the oxidation is gone and the surface is ready for the vapor.

The same headlight right after the polymer vapor pass — fully transparent again — Moments later, after the vapor pass: the lens is transparent again, before the tape even comes off.

Pricing

Straight talk

How long does each method actually last?

Sellers promise everything from "months" to "5+ years" for the same job. Here is the sober comparison from method guides — and in the Texas sun, expect the shorter end of every range.

Method	Typical lifespan	What you should know
Wipe-on tricks (WD-40, toothpaste)	Days to weeks	They don't remove oxidation or add UV protection — cosmetic only.
Polish only, no sealer	Weeks to ~3 months	Looks better briefly, then the bare plastic yellows again fast.
Polish + simple sealer / DIY kit with UV	~6–12 months	The better kits do respectably — if you enjoy sanding your own car.
Sanding + polymer vapor (this service)	~1–2 years	Factory-like clarity, fast. That's why our written warranty is 12 months — a promise the method can actually keep in Texas.
Sanding + 2K clear-coat spray	3–5 years	The most durable finish, but the hardest and most expensive to apply well — body-shop territory.
Brand-new headlight assembly	~5–8 years	Until its factory UV coating fails — at $250–$700+ per side, plus labor.

Lifespans per SLR Restyling's method guide and the sources compiled in our market research (Nov 2026). One warning worth passing on: some cheap "vapor" kits are actually acetone, which can weaken polycarbonate and adds no UV protection. Ask any seller what liquid they use — including us.

Questions

Before you book

Do I need this to pass a Texas inspection?

No — and beware anyone who sells it that way. Texas ended the annual safety inspection for personal vehicles on January 1, 2025 (House Bill 3297), and the emissions test still required in Collin, Dallas, Denton and Tarrant counties doesn't check headlights. Restore your headlights for night safety, looks and resale value — and because Texas headlight law still applies at a traffic stop. (Commercial fleets: annual safety inspections, headlights included, still apply to you.)

How does booking work?

Message us on WhatsApp — (682) 423-8363 — with a photo of each headlight, or fill out the request form and send it in with the ticket number it gives you. You get the exact price back, we agree on a day and time, and we do the job where your car is parked — home, work or apartment lot. Prefer Facebook? Messenger still works too.

Can every headlight be restored?

Restoration fixes surface oxidation and yellowing. Cracks, broken seals, moisture or damage inside the lens, and peeling on the inner side can't be fixed by any restoration — if your photo shows that, we'll tell you honestly instead of taking your money.

How long does it take, and how long does it last?

About 45–60 minutes for both headlights. The vapor finish typically lasts 1–2 years (shorter end under harsh sun exposure) and is covered by our 12-month written warranty: if it clouds back within the year, we redo it.
