types of car keys - key fob

Rochester locksmith offer complete replacement car key services 24/7.

For your convenience, we add here some information about different types of car keys so you can be aware of them as well. Let’s check them out:

First, key fob – like the one on the left picture. This is the most advanced type of car key there is and as of 2023 the most common and expensive as well. Remember that if you lost your key fob, an automotive locksmith will need to come out to you and make you a replacement key on site as it needs to be coded to the car. You can’t program key fob from a remote location. On site service is needed.

types of car keys - chip keys

Transponder car keys, or chip car keys, are the older generation of key fobs. There are many types of chip keys, some with keyless entry remote (like in the picture here) and some without. What is relevant for all of them is the fact they have a small electronic key inside the key, that like all key fobs needs to be coded as well with a special machine.

Keep in mind that you will need to have the chip key and the car on site to be able to program transponder keys. Rochester Locksmith can do it for you as well 24/7.

types of car keys - Non chip keys

The last type of keys are the non transponder key. Those are older keys, usually used before 2000 for most makes and model. As of 2023 those keys are no longer in use of the cars.

You can, however, find many older cars that have an ignition cylinder with non transponder keys. Those keys are simple metal keys and no need to code them on site.
