About Key Duplication
Having a spare key is the simplest way to avoid a lockout. Copies can be made for house keys, business keys and most vehicle keys. Older car keys are simple metal keys; most newer ones contain a transponder chip that has to be programmed to the vehicle.
A good copy starts from a good original. Copying a worn key copies its wear, so for older keys it can be better to cut a new key to the lock code. Keys stamped "do not duplicate" and restricted keyways are controlled on purpose, and copying them requires authorization.

Certified to program keys for late-model vehicles
Global One Locksmith is NASTF certified — credentialed through the National Automotive Service Task Force (NASTF) Vehicle Security Professional Registry, the industry framework that allows certified locksmiths to obtain manufacturer key and immobilizer information through the Secure Data Release Model.
What it means for your vehicle
Newer vehicles will not accept a key until it is paired to the car's security system, and that pairing needs manufacturer data a locksmith has to be authorized to receive. Our certification is what allows us to cut and program keys for late-model cars and trucks — transponder keys, proximity fobs and push-to-start systems — and to carry out immobilizer resets at your vehicle rather than sending you to a dealership.
What NASTF certification requires
NASTF vets and credentials the locksmiths it certifies, and monitors the transactions made under those credentials. To be certified, a business must:
- ·hold a U.S. federal taxpayer identification number
- ·be properly licensed and registered in every municipality where it does business
- ·be in good standing in those jurisdictions
- ·provide services directly to the registered owner of the vehicle
