How Much Does a Locksmith Charge to Duplicate a Car Key in Perth?

Posted on 20th, May 2019

It’s a fact of life that at some point you’ll probably require the services of a Locksmith.

But Authentic Locksmiths such as Locksmiths Perth 247 don’t just provide services for residential or commercial premises – they are often called upon to provide Car Locksmiths Perth Services such as duplicating a car key.

Locksmith Charge Perth

If you require your car key to duplicated, you will likely wonder: ‘how much does a Locksmith actually Locksmith Charge for get a car key or a duplicate car key in Perth?’

Well, it can cost anywhere between $250 to $1800 depending on the type of car key needed to be duplicated, but can be considerably more depending on how high-end your car is.

Give us a call on 0427 580 823

Let’s take a closer look.

Hiring an Automotive Locksmith Perth Service to Duplicate a Traditional Car Key

A traditional car key (without a transponder) is as the name applies – simply a little piece of metal designed to fit and work in your car. Depending on how old your car is, your car may simply use one of these.

If that is the case, duplicating your car key from a spare is as simple and old-school as key cutting gets and is generally the cheapest and most hassle-free method of car key duplication. If you aren’t stranded and have a spare traditional car key, you can have it copied for around $5 at a key-cutting shop.

In other words, always make sure you have a spare key cut!

Duplicating a Traditional Car Key from Scratch From Your Stranded Car

However, if you are locked out of your car and require a duplicate car key from your location, things will be a little more costly and complicated and will require an Automotive Locksmiths Perth Service.

An Automotive Locksmiths Perth Service will have to travel to your vehicle’s location and make a new car key on the spot. They will have to remove your car’s lock and use its code to produce a car key from scratch.

Assuming this goes without a hitch, costs should be around $250.

Hiring an Automotive Locksmith Perth Service to Duplicate an Electronic Car Key

Most modern car keys will either feature an electronic remote on them or the least a transponder which means you can’t simply start the car via a piece of metal.

Electronic keys can vary and the costs of hiring an Emergency Locksmith Perth to come to your stranded vehicle will vary even more depending on what car you own.

The first thing you should know is: this will cost you a lot more than a traditional key.

Again, this is why having a spare set of car keys is the smartest thing to do to prevent major costs of needing an Emergency Locksmith to make a duplicate set of car keys from your stranded car

Duplicating a Spare Electronic Car Key

Prices for a Locksmith Perth Service to duplicate a spare car key will vary from $267 to $800 depending on the make and model of your vehicle and whether your keys unlock your car via a push of the button (which is cheaper) or your car unlocks automatically when approaching your vehicle (which is much more expensive.)

Luckily, when duplicating your car keys from a spare you can also choose to omit certain features such as the remote button which can be much cheaper.

Duplicating an Electronic Car Key from Scratch from Your Stranded Car

As you can imagine, getting a duplicate key from scratch (having lost both sets of car keys) will be much more expensive and require a Perth Automotive Locksmith.

If your car is stranded, you have lost both sets of keys and require an Automotive Locksmith Perth Service on the spot, prices will jump to between $1800 to a few thousand to have a new set made from scratch.

What’s the lesson from all this? Always, always have a spare set of car keys.
