A lockout or lost key in Back of the Yards can happen at home, at work, or while parked along one of the neighborhood’s active commercial streets. Chicago Car Keys provides mobile automotive locksmith service for many replacement-key, programming, lockout, broken-key, and ignition needs.
Our coverage includes safe, accessible locations near 47th Street, Ashland Avenue, Halsted Street, and the blocks around the Back of the Yards Branch library. The area is part of Chicago’s New City community area and includes a mix of residential, industrial, and shopping properties. Gates, loading areas, and private lots may require special access, so tell us exactly where the vehicle is and how the technician should enter.
For supported vehicles, we may unlock the car, cut and program a replacement or spare key, enroll a transponder or proximity fob, remove a broken blade, or evaluate an ignition problem at the vehicle. Please have the year, make, model, key details, photo identification, and proof of ownership available.

Back of the Yards Mobile Service Questions
Can you make a key for a company-owned vehicle?

Can you unlock the vehicle if the ownership documents are inside?
Tell us before dispatch that the documents are locked inside. The technician will explain the verification needed for the situation. We must establish that you are authorized to access the vehicle.
Do you need every vehicle present for a fleet key appointment?
Tell us which vehicles need service and when each will be available. Cutting and programming requirements vary, so we confirm which vehicles and working keys must be present before arranging the appointment.
