| Service | Business Hours | After Hours |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Standard Car Lockout | $50–$150 | $100–$200 |
| Standard Key Replacement | $70–$250 | $120–$300 |
| Transponder Key Replacement | $150–$400 | $200–$450 |

## What Factors Affect Car Lockout Pricing?

Time of day is the biggest factor — after-hours service between 10 PM and 6 AM typically adds $50 to $100 to the standard rate. Vehicle type matters: a standard car with a traditional key costs less than a luxury vehicle with an advanced security system.
