At the beginning of the 20th century, the first Model T Ford cars required a simple car key, but it was separate from the starting process itself. The first true ignition key for a car was introduced in 1949 by Chrysler. Ignition keys for cars were largely the same for years after. What’s more, they were relatively simple keys that could be copied for only a few dollars.
Losing your keys has always been a hassle, but losing one of the high security keys most cars are equipped with today can turn that hassle into a very costly mistake.
When you find yourself in a jam and locked out of your Ford car, the only thing more frustrating is finding out that the locksmith you’ve chosen doesn’t have the ability to unlock your particular vehicle. This scenario happens more often than you might think, and when it comes to Ford cars, the best locksmith to choose in Covington, Kentucky, is Acme Lock. We’ve got what it takes to unlock your Ford car in no time at all, and we’ve been providing lock and safe service since 1933.
It used to be, at least in Ohio, when you locked your keys in your car the police would come and unlock the car door for you. Unfortunately, those days are long gone. Whether the police have decided that unlocking your car is not in their job description or they simply have bigger fish to fry; you are left out in the cold.
Today, even the most basic models of vehicles are moving towards high tech security keys. With the increase in security also comes an increase in price. Typically most dealers charge nearly $125 for a key to be made and it only goes up from there. That's why Acme Lock chose to invest in some of the most expensive car key making tools to help ease the burden of cost to the consumer.
