Car Lockout Service
Locked your keys inside your car? It happens to everyone. River Valley Lock & Key provides fast car lockout service throughout the Arkansas River Valley and Northwest Arkansas. Our mobile locksmiths use professional tools to safely unlock your vehicle without damage. We service all makes and models — domestic, import, luxury, and commercial vehicles.
Lost Car Keys & Key Replacement
Losing your only car key is stressful — especially with modern vehicles that use expensive transponder or smart keys. We can cut and program a new key on-site for most vehicles, often at a fraction of the dealership cost. We carry a wide inventory of key blanks and programming equipment for domestic and foreign vehicles.
Car Key Programming
Modern vehicles require electronically programmed keys to start the engine. Our automotive locksmiths use professional-grade key programming equipment to program transponder keys, proximity keys, and push-to-start fobs for virtually all makes and models. We can program keys even when you have no working key — no tow to the dealership required.
Ignition Repair & Replacement
A worn or damaged ignition can leave you stranded. We diagnose and repair ignition cylinder issues, extract broken keys from ignitions, and replace ignition switches when necessary. Our mobile service means we handle ignition problems at your home, workplace, or roadside location.
