Ignition Switch & Door Cylinder Repair
On-site repair of worn ignition switches, stuck ignition cylinders and damaged door locks — no tow truck, no dealership wait.
Ignition & Door Locks
How We Help
An ignition that won't turn, a key that only works if you wiggle it, or a door lock that spins without opening — these are some of the most common calls we get. Most of the time the problem is wear inside the cylinder: the small wafers that read your key get worn down after years of use, or a forced entry damages the lock.
Míster Keys drives to where your car is — at home, at work or on the street — and repairs the ignition or door cylinder right there. When the cylinder can be rebuilt, we rebuild it so it keeps working with your current key. When it must be replaced, we code the new cylinder to your key whenever possible, so you don't end up carrying two different keys.
Signs you need this service
- The key won't turn in the ignition or gets stuck in it
- You have to jiggle the key to start the car
- A door lock spins freely or no longer opens with the key
- Damage after a break-in or a forced lock
- Broken key piece stuck inside the cylinder

Repair First, Replace Only When Needed
We always check whether the existing cylinder can be saved before suggesting a replacement. Rebuilding the cylinder is often faster and keeps your original key working in every lock of the car.
We work on American, European, Asian and Chinese vehicles. Before we start, we explain what we found and what the job involves, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

FAQ
Common Questions
Can you fix my ignition without towing the car?
Yes. Ignition switch and cylinder repairs are done on site, wherever the car is parked. You don't need a tow truck or a trip to the dealership.
Will I need a new key after the cylinder is replaced?
Not necessarily. Whenever possible we code the new cylinder to your existing key so one key keeps opening and starting the car.
Do you repair door locks after a break-in?
Yes. We repair or replace door cylinders damaged by forced entry and make sure the lock works with your key again.
