I bought a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee and lost the only key I was given for it. I'm curious if there's a way for me to retrieve the key code and pin code I need to have a new key made myself as the dealership I was told to call can only look back to 06

I believe an automotive locksmith should be able to make a key for you.

Okay so we bought our car on FB and we hadn't gotten the title transfered in our name and my husband lost the keys at work the other day what should we do

Asked by Avery & Isaiah over 4 years ago

Call a locksmith and they might do if if you can show them the receipt from the title transfer, bill of sale, etc. They will also probably ask for a drivers license and have you sign a waiver.

No and no. You will have to get a locksmith to come out.

Broke a key off in my public storage lock is it possible to get that out

Asked by Adrian about 2 years ago

Yes you can. A locksmith has special tools to pull that broken key out without damaging the function of the lock in most cases.

How can you unlock a magnetic lock, that's locked from the inside and you're stuck outside? How much would it cost for a locksmith to do that?

Asked by Peaches over 3 years ago

Depends on your area and who you hire. Could be $75 to $250 depending on what needs to be done. It’s impossible for me to say what needs to be done to gain entry without seeing your setup and being there. Every job is different, & this is a special situation.

So I have a madeco lock I took apart the housing it was in and lost one of the parts there is like a threaded sleeve it goes in well I lost that sleeve can I still pick the lock or do I need that to continue ue

Asked by Jack about 2 years ago

Unfortunately I am not sure what part you’re talking about. I am not familiar with a threaded sleeve in a Medeco lock; but as long as you have all of the internals springs & pins you should be fine.
