Car locksmith in Greendale
Keys made in the parking lot, whether that lot belongs to Southridge, a school off Grange or a house on one of the Village streets. The van runs out of Milwaukee and Greendale is a short run, day or night.
Open 24 hours. Proof of vehicle ownership required before any key is made.
What it costs
in Greendale
Same figures across the whole coverage area. Distance affects the call out, never the price of the work.
Southridge produces
most of the calls
One property drives the majority of the work in Greendale. Southridge sits at the intersection of two highways and pulls traffic from four or five suburbs, so the lot is full of cars whose owners do not live here and cannot walk home. The classic version is a family vehicle with the fob locked inside and children’s car seats visible through the glass. That call gets treated as the emergency it is.
Most common around here: Toyota, Honda, Chevrolet and Buick, Ford, Subaru and Mazda, Hyundai and Kia. All makes →
What to send from
the mall lot
These jobs go smoothly or badly depending entirely on what arrives in the first message. Four things make the difference.
Someone shut inside? Call 911 and message us at the same time — whoever reaches you first gets the car open.
One fob for a
family car is a gamble
Plenty of households here run a single fob for the vehicle that does school, groceries and everything else. It works right up until it does not, and then it fails on a weekday afternoon with everyone in the car. A second fob made while the first still works is $189 on a push-to-start car and $49 on an older key, done in the driveway in under an hour.

Greendale, answered
How much is a car key in Greendale?
A spare made while one key still works starts at $49. With every key lost, a transponder key starts at $89 and a push-to-start smart key at $189. European models start at $299. The year and model set the final figure.
Can you come to Southridge Mall?
Yes, it is the most common address in Greendale. Say which side of the building and the nearest entrance, since the lot wraps the whole property.
My child is locked in the car. What do I do?
Call 911 first, then message us at the same time. Whoever reaches you first opens the car. Say clearly that a child is inside so the call is treated correctly from the first second.
How much is it just to open a locked car?
A lockout starts at $69 and takes minutes in most cases. Nothing is drilled and no glass is touched.
I only have one fob for the family car. Should I get a second?
It is the cheapest insurance there is. A second fob made while the first still works is $189 on push-to-start cars and $49 on an older key, instead of the longer all-keys-lost procedure later.
How fast can you reach Greendale?
Greendale is a short run from the core coverage. You get a real estimate once the exact address is confirmed rather than a number meant to end the call.
Do you cover the Village and the school lots?
Yes, along with Grange Avenue, Northway and the Highway 100 corridor. All of 53129 is covered at the same prices.
Can you make a key with no key at all?
Yes, without a tow. The cutting code comes from the vehicle and the immobilizer is taught a credential it has never seen, all where the car is parked.
Is this cheaper than a dealership?
Usually. Dealer keys run $250 to $700 and up on common models, and a car with no working key has to be towed there, which adds $150 to $300 before any work starts.
Do you speak Spanish?
Yes, at any hour. There is a full Spanish version of this page as well.
