Chevrolet Car Keys In Las Vegas

We cut and program Chevrolet keys at your vehicle anywhere in Las Vegas, day or night, so a Silverado at a job site and a Malibu in a driveway get the same fast service. Most Chevy keys are made and programmed on site without a tow, and every job is done under City of Las Vegas Locksmith License #P64-00012.

Locked out with the key sitting on the seat, or lost the only one you had? We open the truck without damage through our vehicle lockouts service, and we can build a new key from scratch when none are left.

• Theft systems varyMany older Chevys keep the theft system inside the ignition rather than the key, so a plain cut key can still start them.
• Resistor pellet keysSome Chevys from the 1980s and 1990s used a key with a small resistor pellet, and the pellet value has to match the car.
• Work trucks welcomeWe make keys for fleet Silverados and Colorados right at the yard, the warehouse or the job site where they are parked.
• Price before workYou get the full price before the technician cuts or programs anything, so there are no surprises at the end of the visit.

Which Chevrolet Key Do You Have?

Chevrolet keys went from plain cut keys, to resistor pellet keys on certain models, to chip keys during the 2000s. Newer Chevys mostly use remote head keys, flip keys and push to start fobs.

• Plain cut keyThis is a metal key with a rubber or plastic head and no electronics inside it, and many Silverados, Colorados and Malibus from the early 2000s and earlier use one, so the replacement is usually a quick cutting job.
• Resistor pellet keyYou can recognize it by the small colored pellet set into the blade near the head. The car reads the electrical value of that pellet, so we match the correct value before cutting the new key.
• Chip key or remote head keyThese have a thicker plastic head with a hidden chip, and many add lock and unlock buttons. The blade is cut first, and then the chip and remote are programmed to the truck or car.
• Flip key or smart fobOn cars like the Cruze the blade folds into the remote, while many newer Chevys use a fob with a start button. Either type is cut or coded and then paired to the vehicle on site.

Chevrolet Models and Their Keys

Chevrolet Silverado

Early Silverados through the mid 2000s use a plain cut key, with the theft system built into the ignition instead of the key. The 2007 redesign brought chip keys, later trucks moved to remote head keys, and some upper trims now use push to start.

Chevrolet Cruze

The Cruze came to the US around 2011 with a flip key that has the remote buttons built into the head, and later models added push to start on many trims, so we check which version your car uses.

Chevrolet Malibu

Malibus from the late 1990s and early 2000s mostly use a plain cut key with the theft system in the ignition, while chip keys arrived with the mid 2000s redesign, and many later Malibus use a push to start fob.

Chevrolet Camaro

Older Camaros built through 2002 use cut keys, and some cars from the 1980s and 1990s carry a resistor pellet in the blade. The Camaro returned around 2010 with a flip key, and later models moved to push to start.

Chevrolet Corvette

Corvettes from the mid 1980s into the 1990s use a resistor pellet key that must match the car. Later C5 cars paired a key with a keyless remote, and the C6 from 2005 onward starts with a fob and a button.

Chevrolet Equinox

Early Equinox models from the mid 2000s use a cut key, often with a separate remote for the doors, and later models moved to flip keys and remote head keys, and many newer ones use push to start.

Chevrolet Colorado

The first Colorado, sold through about 2012, uses a plain cut key on most trucks. The Colorado that returned around 2015 uses a chip key with remote buttons, and some later trims use push to start.

How We Make a New Chevrolet Key

1. 1

   Call with the VIN or year

   The model year tells us whether your Chevy needs a plain key, a pellet key, a chip key or a smart fob.

2. 2

   Hear the price first

   You get the complete price over the phone or at the vehicle before the technician begins any work.

3. 3

   Key made at the vehicle

   We cut the key and program it to the truck or car wherever it is parked, whether that is a driveway, a lot or a job site.

4. 4

   Start it up together

   We test the doors, the remote buttons and the ignition with you before handing over the finished key.

What a Chevrolet Key Costs in Las Vegas

A plain cut key for an older Chevy is usually $50 to $180 in Las Vegas, and a chip key with programming usually runs $150 to $350. Smart fobs cost more than chip keys, and a lockout on its own is typically $45 to $135.

What raises the price on a Chevrolet is mainly the key type, whether any working key is left, and the time of day you call. Nights, weekends and holidays usually add $25 to $75, and we always give you the number up front.

Make a Spare Before You Need One

A second key for a Chevy truck is inexpensive while you still hold one that works, because we can copy it and add it to the vehicle in one short visit. If the last key disappears at a job site, the truck sits idle until a new key is built from the lock, and that costs more. Ask about a spare the next time you need any of our car keys services.

Owning a Chevrolet in Las Vegas

Chevy trucks are everywhere in Las Vegas, from contractor rigs in North Las Vegas to Tahoes parked in apartment complexes. Keys get dropped on job sites, and fobs bake on dashboards every July. If you run a crew, it pays to keep a spare for each truck at the office, and we can come to the yard to make them. Our automotive locksmith page lists everything else we handle on the road.
