Whether you’ve lost your key, locked yourself out, or need a duplicate key made, we bring expert service and cutting-edge equipment directly to your location — no towing, no dealership visit required.

We specialize in replacing and programming all types of Hyundai keys for every model and year, including traditional metal keys, chip keys (transponder keys), Hyundai key fobs, remote keys, and smart keyless entry systems. Our mobile locksmith units are fully equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, key cutting machines, and transponder programming systems to ensure your Hyundai is back on the road in no time.
Lost Hyundai Key? We Can Replace It on the Spot
Losing your Hyundai key is stressful, but it doesn’t have to be a nightmare. If you’ve misplaced your only key or had it stolen, our certified locksmiths can provide a new Hyundai key replacement immediately at your location in Washington, DC.
By decoding your vehicle’s ignition lock or accessing its VIN, our technicians can cut and program a new key that functions just like the original. From basic ignition keys to high-security laser-cut keys, we ensure a precise fit and full synchronization with your vehicle’s immobilizer system. You don’t need the original key in hand — we can create a brand-new one from scratch.
Hyundai Key Fob Replacement and Programming
Modern Hyundai vehicles come with keyless entry remotes or remote start key fobs, and when these are lost, damaged, or no longer responsive, it affects far more than just access. Our locksmiths provide fast, professional Hyundai key fob replacement services for all Hyundai models.
Using dealer-grade programming tools, we can pair a new key fob with your Hyundai’s onboard computer system, restoring full remote functionality, including:
- Lock and unlock doors
- Panic alarm
- Remote trunk release
- Remote engine start (for equipped models)
- Keyless ignition (push-button start)
Whether your vehicle uses a smart proximity fob or a standard remote head key, we carry compatible stock and program them on-site — no trip to the dealer required.
Hyundai Transponder Key Replacement and Programming
Most Hyundai models manufactured since the early 2000s come with transponder chip keys — keys embedded with a chip that communicates with the vehicle’s immobilizer system. If your transponder key is malfunctioning, or you’ve lost it, we can cut and program a new chip key to match your vehicle’s security system.
Common symptoms of a faulty transponder key include the engine not turning over, flashing security indicators, or an unresponsive ignition. We diagnose the issue, cut a precise new key, and program the transponder chip to your Hyundai using specialized tools.
We service all transponder-equipped Hyundai models, including the Elantra, Sonata, Santa Fe, Tucson, Accent, Veloster, and more.
Hyundai Smart Key and Push-to-Start Key Replacement
More recent Hyundai vehicles — especially upper trim levels — feature smart keys or push-button start systems that allow you to unlock and start your vehicle without inserting a physical key. If your Hyundai uses a proximity smart key, we offer full smart key replacement and programming services in Washington, DC.
Smart keys communicate wirelessly with your car’s internal receivers and require specialized programming. Our locksmiths can program a new smart key to your vehicle’s ECU, remove any lost or stolen keys from memory, and test for proper functionality. We support smart key systems for a wide range of Hyundai models, including:
- Hyundai Palisade
- Hyundai Kona
- Hyundai Santa Fe
- Hyundai Tucson
- Hyundai Ioniq
- Hyundai Genesis (pre-Genesis luxury division)
With DC Mobile Locksmith, you’ll get a fully functioning replacement Hyundai smart key right at your location without the dealership delay.
Broken Hyundai Key Repair and Extraction
Hyundai keys can wear out or break over time — especially if the key blade bends, the buttons fall off, or the remote casing cracks. If your Hyundai key is broken, we can repair or replace it on-site.
If your key snapped off in the door lock or ignition, we offer professional key extraction services to safely remove it without damaging the lock cylinder. Once the broken key is retrieved, we can duplicate it or cut a new blade based on your vehicle’s code.
For damaged Hyundai key fobs, we can:
- Replace internal batteries
- Repair or replace worn button pads
- Provide new shells or casings
- Transfer existing electronics to a new housing
Our technicians carry a wide range of parts and blank keys to address most Hyundai key issues on the first visit.
Duplicate Hyundai Keys and Spare Key Creation
Don’t wait until you’re locked out or stranded — having a spare key can save you time, money, and stress. We offer fast and affordable Hyundai key duplication services for all key types. Whether you need an extra traditional key, a second transponder key, or a backup smart key fob, we can cut and program it on the spot.
Hyundai models we frequently duplicate keys for include:
- Hyundai Elantra
- Hyundai Sonata
- Hyundai Santa Fe
- Hyundai Accent
- Hyundai Tucson
- Hyundai Kona
- Hyundai Venue
- Hyundai Ioniq
- Hyundai Genesis Coupe
- Hyundai Azera
Our mobile units serve all areas of Washington, DC and come directly to your home, office, or roadside location to duplicate your Hyundai key quickly and accurately.
Hyundai Key Reprogramming and Immobilizer Reset
Sometimes, Hyundai keys may lose synchronization with the vehicle’s computer — particularly after battery failure, electrical issues, or theft. If your existing Hyundai key or fob is no longer recognized by the car, we offer key reprogramming services.
Using dealer-level software, we reprogram your key or remote to communicate with the immobilizer system, allowing the car to start and the remote features to function normally. We can also reset the immobilizer system or erase keys that are lost, stolen, or compromised.
This service is ideal if:
- Your Hyundai key turns in the ignition but doesn’t start the car
- Your push-start system won’t respond to your key fob
- The car unlocks but won’t crank
- The security or check engine light is flashing after using the key
Our reprogramming services are quick, secure, and 100% mobile across the DC metro area.
