This is not goodbye.
Far from it! We will continue to serve you here at our Main Street location until our time is up. Our projected moving date is late 2023.

The cost of replacement will depend on several factors, including the complexity of the key fob, the cost of labor, and the make and model of the car.
The History of Car Keys
Rekeying cars has been a part of the locksmithing industry for many years. Starting with metal keys that could easily be duplicated. Over time, the technology behind car locks evolved, leading to the introduction of transponder keys in the 1990s. Transponder keys are more advanced than traditional keys because they contain a microchip that communicates with the car’s onboard computer. This communication ensures that only the key with the correct code can start the engine, preventing theft.
What makes transponder keys more expensive?
The reason transponder keys are more expensive than traditional keys is because of the technology involved in their manufacture. The microchip and the programming required to communicate with the car’s computer make transponder keys more complex and expensive to produce. Additionally, the process of programming a transponder key to a specific car requires specialized equipment and training, which also contributes to the higher cost.
The use of transponder keys in cars has greatly improved the security of vehicles, but it has also made the process of rekeying cars more complex and expensive.
Why Car Key Fobs are So Expensive to Replace
why are car key fobs so expensive to replace? There are several factors that contribute to the high cost of replacing a key fob, including:
Complexity: Key fobs contain complex technology that allows them to communicate with the car’s computer system. This technology makes them more expensive to produce and program.
Customization: Key fobs are designed to work with specific car models, which means they are often customized to match the specific make and model of the car they are intended for. This customization process also contributes to the higher cost of replacement.
Labor: Replacing a key fob requires specialized equipment and training, which contributes to the overall cost of the replacement. A locksmith must have the knowledge and skills to program the key fob to work with the car’s computer system, which takes time and effort.
Car Make and Model: Some car models have more advanced key fobs with additional features, such as push-button start, which can drive up the cost of replacement. Luxury car brands, such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Lexus, often have more complex key fobs that can be more expensive and require specialty tools to program
If you need to replace a key fob or transponder key, it’s important to work with a reputable locksmith who has experience with the technology and can provide a high-quality replacement.

You’ve put your all into building your business, so it only makes sense you’d want to keep everything as safe as possible. That’s why many businesses use commercial door locks to safely secure their offices, warehouses, storefronts, etc.
Here at Harry’s we work with a wide range of building and business types, and keeping your business, home, or vehicle secure is our specialty. Your business is a valuable asset, and you should protect it. Business owners often overlook the importance of security when they don’t have to. But if you want to keep your employees and customers safe, it’s crucial that you consider the security of your business. Here are 3 Key Things that will help keep your business secure.
Electronic Access Systems
Electronic Access systems are popular in locations that have many doors that need to stay secure, but also allow employees to move around to different locations in the business. Having an electronic system allows you to seamlessly control who can access what areas, and makes revoking access simple and efficient. Every business has different needs, and there isn’t a one-size fits all solution. By working with security professionals you can pick a system that is perfect for your business.
Alarm System
An alarm system is one of the best ways to protect your business. If someone tries to enter your building without knowing the code, an alarm will let you know immediately so that you can take action before anything happens. Alarms are also great a deterring theft or vandalism, as an alarm and the threat of police showing up will scare off a majority of people attempting to break in.
Security Cameras
Security cameras can deter crime, identify possible suspects in the event of a burglary and help business owners see who is coming and going. Today’s security cameras are more advanced than ever before, and can be used in low-light situations or when sensors pick up unusual motion. Security cameras can significantly increase your peace of mind. They can be expensive, depending on your business’s needs, but generally are worth the investment for businesses with a commercial property.
