Hear from Our Customers
You’re not stuck waiting weeks for a dealership appointment or paying $800+ for a simple key replacement. We handle everything from basic car lockouts to complex transponder key programming right where your vehicle sits.
Most of our automotive locksmith calls get resolved in under an hour. You keep your keys, your time, and your money while we handle the technical work that dealerships charge premium prices for.
Whether it’s a dead key fob battery, broken ignition, or you’ve locked your only set of keys inside your car, we bring the solution directly to you in Trainer.
The McCausland family has been solving lock problems since the late 1800s. You’re not dealing with some fly-by-night operation or call center dispatching random contractors to your location in Trainer.
We’ve built the Delaware Valley area’s largest locksmith company by showing up when we say we will and fixing things right the first time. Our physical storefront sits in nearby Prospect Park, but our mobile units cover Trainer and surrounding communities daily.
Every technician undergoes full background checks, maintains proper licensing, and holds membership in ALOA—the largest locksmith association in America. When your car key stops working or you’re locked out in a Trainer parking lot, you get certified professionals who’ve seen it all before.
You call us with your automotive locksmith problem. We ask a few quick questions about your vehicle make, model, year, and what’s happening. No long hold times or phone trees—just straight answers about whether we can help and how long it’ll take.

We handle the complete range of automotive locksmith services that Trainer residents face. Car lockouts when you’ve left keys inside. Transponder key programming for newer vehicles. Proximity key fob services for push-button start systems. Ignition repair when keys won’t turn or break off inside.
Modern vehicles around Trainer—from basic sedans to luxury European models—use increasingly complex security systems. We invest in the latest programming equipment that interfaces directly with your vehicle’s computer system, ensuring new keys and fobs sync perfectly with your car’s immobilizer.
Unlike general locksmiths who dabble in automotive work, we specialize in vehicle security. Our mobile units carry genuine manufacturer parts, so you won’t face the same problem again six months later. We also maintain inventory that local dealerships often can’t secure for weeks, especially for common makes and models driven in the Trainer area.
Our automotive locksmith services typically cost 40-60% less than what dealerships charge for identical work. A transponder key replacement that costs $300-500 at a dealership usually runs $150-250 through our service, completed the same day.
The savings come from our streamlined process and lower overhead. Dealerships often subcontract locksmith work anyway, so you’re paying their markup plus waiting in their service queue for weeks.
We provide upfront pricing over the phone with no surprise fees or hidden charges. Most automotive locksmith jobs in Trainer get completed within hours, not weeks like dealership scheduling often requires.
Yes, we program keys and fobs for vehicles with push-button start systems, proximity sensors, and smart key technology. Our mobile units carry the specialized programming equipment needed for these advanced systems that many shops don’t have.
Push-button start vehicles use proximity key fobs that communicate with your car’s computer when you’re nearby. Programming these requires accessing the vehicle’s onboard diagnostic system and syncing the new fob’s unique security code to your specific vehicle.
We handle this programming for most makes and models, including luxury European vehicles that use particularly sophisticated security systems. The process typically takes 30-45 minutes and we test everything multiple times before considering the job complete.
Call us immediately rather than attempting DIY solutions or breaking a window. We provide emergency automotive lockout services throughout Trainer and typically reach your location within 20-30 minutes, faster than most towing services.
Our technicians use professional-grade tools that unlock your vehicle without damaging paint, weather stripping, or window mechanisms. This non-destructive entry saves you from expensive body work repairs that can cost more than our entire service call.
While waiting, stay near your vehicle if it’s safe and have your driver’s license ready for verification. We confirm vehicle ownership before unlocking, which protects both you and prevents us from accidentally helping car thieves.
We handle all types of ignition problems including stuck ignitions, keys that won’t turn, and ignitions with broken keys lodged inside. These issues often stem from worn ignition cylinders, damaged key cuts, or internal mechanism failures that worsen over time.
Our mobile service means we diagnose and repair ignition problems right where your vehicle sits in Trainer. We can extract broken key pieces, rebuild worn cylinders, or replace the entire ignition assembly using genuine manufacturer parts that match your vehicle’s specifications.
Most ignition repairs complete within 1-2 hours depending on the specific issue and vehicle complexity. We test the repair thoroughly with your existing keys and cut new ones if needed to ensure smooth operation for years to come.
Yes, we create new keys even when you’ve lost every key to your vehicle. This process involves accessing your vehicle’s VIN number and using specialized equipment to generate new keys that match your car’s unique security system.
For vehicles with transponder chips or smart key systems, we program the new keys to communicate properly with your car’s immobilizer system. This ensures the new keys will start your vehicle and operate all functions, not just unlock doors.
The process takes longer than simple key duplication—usually 45-90 minutes depending on your vehicle’s security complexity. We handle this service for most makes and models, though some newer luxury vehicles may require additional verification steps for security purposes.
We typically reach automotive locksmith emergencies in Trainer within 20-30 minutes during regular business hours. Our mobile units cover the Delaware Valley area and we prioritize emergency calls like lockouts or ignition failures over routine appointments.
Response times can extend to 45-60 minutes during peak periods or severe weather, but we provide realistic time estimates when you call rather than false promises. We also offer after-hours emergency service for urgent situations that can’t wait until morning.
Once our technician arrives at your location, most automotive locksmith problems get resolved within an hour. Simple lockouts might take 15-20 minutes, while complex key programming or ignition repairs could require 60-90 minutes to complete properly and test thoroughly.
