Yes, we cover all of Nampa, around the clock
We work in every part of Nampa 24/7, nights and holidays included. Lockouts, new keys when none are left, spares, fob programming, broken keys and stuck ignitions are all handled at the vehicle, with no tow.
Homes and businesses get help too: house lockouts, rekeying after a move, and locks for shops and offices, including the older storefronts around Downtown Nampa.
Places in Nampa where keys go missing
- Ford Idaho Center lots. A concert or rodeo lets out and your car won't open. Wait somewhere lit and tell us which side of the arena you parked on.
- Lake Lowell. A pickup at the boat ramp with the key on the seat, or a fob that went over the side. On the water, keep the fob zipped in a pocket or a sealed bag; if it's gone, we make and program a new key right at the ramp.
- Around Northwest Nazarene University. If you drive a family car that came with one key, add a spare while that key still works; that's a much smaller job than starting from nothing.
- Shopping lots off Garrity Boulevard and Karcher Road, and park-and-rides along I-84. Keys left in a cart, a trunk that closed on them, or a car that won't open after work. Tell us the nearest entrance and the row.
Getting from Meridian to Nampa
The locksmith normally rides I-84 west and leaves at whichever exit sits nearest you, or comes over on Franklin Road or Ustick Road when the interstate is jammed.
Tell us where the car is, and we'll tell you when we can be there. If a child or pet is locked inside, especially in summer heat or a winter freeze, call 911 first. Those calls get priority with us.
Spare key or all keys lost: which call is yours?
If one working key is still in your hand, you need a spare car key: we copy it and program the copy to the car. If no key is left, it's an all keys lost job. The key is made from the car itself, then programmed, and on many vehicles the missing key is dropped from the car's memory.
Not sure what you're holding? A plastic head with no buttons usually hides a chip; see chip keys. Buttons on that head make it a remote-head key. A fob with no blade sticking out and a start button on the dash means a push-to-start smart key, even if a small emergency blade hides inside.
