Lost Nissan keys, spare keys and key fobs, cut and programmed at your car. No tow, no waiting on the dealer, and a price before we come out.
Altima, Sentra and Rogue keys are among the most common we replace. Most Nissans from the mid-2000s on use an Intelligent Key, and newer ones need a security code that we calculate from the car on site.
Einstein Locksmith is a mobile locksmith based in Boca Raton. We come to wherever your Nissan is parked, cut the key, program it to the car, and you drive away. Call or text (561) 561-5397 with the year and model and you get a price before we come out.
Which key your Nissan uses decides how it is made. Years are approximate and vary by model.
| Years | Key type | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Before about 1999 | Plain metal key | No chip. Cut by code or from the lock. |
| About 1999 on | Transponder (chip) key | A chip in the head has to be registered to the car’s immobilizer. |
| About 2005 on | Intelligent Key | A proximity fob. Early versions use a twist knob on the column, later ones a push button. |
| Recent models | Smart key with rolling PIN | Programming needs a security code that is calculated from the car itself. We pull it on site. |

Yes in most cases. That is an all-keys-lost job: we make the new key from the car itself, at the car.
Start with the fob battery, then hold the fob against the start button and try again. If that fails, the fob may have failed or lost its programming, and we can test and replace it at the car.
No. We are a mobile locksmith, so there is no shop to tow to. We come to the car within about 30 miles of Boca Raton, across Palm Beach and Broward County.
