Some car key programming and automotive car remote programming requires expensive diagnostic equipment. In this case there will be an extra fee for programing the key to the car. As the years went on these chip keys started having the remote functions lock, unlock, trunk, start and panic buttons added to them.

Sidewinder and laser cut car Keys

A car key that moves sliders is known as a sidewinder key or laser cut key. These car keys are easily recognizable for the snake-like path that is cut into the sides of the key blade. In almost all cases, this pattern will appear on both sides of the car key so that it can be inserted into the car ignition in two different ways.

Similar to wafer locks, these car ignition paths are used to elevate or depress the internal components of the car lock. The sliders in the lock ride along the path that is cut into the car key, and when the sidewinder key is fully inserted, all of the sliders should be at their appropriate height. Unlike the sheer lines in a wafer ignition lock, the slider lock will have different gates.

Each slider needs to be fitted into a gate so that they will be out of the way and allow the car lock to turn freely. This means that the deepest gate will always be the true gate. For security, multiple unnecessary gates are added to the ignition lock. These are known as false gates and do not provide the adequate depth to have the slider key leave the lock unobstructed.

If there are no false gates in the car lock, these devices will be incredibly easy to pick or rake open. This should not be a concern to most car owners because very few criminals pick car locks, and an even fewer number of car thieves pick car locks. In addition to this, most laser cut keys act only as a backup key. They are the key of choice for most car smart key systems, and will not start the car without the key fob present.

Often these sidewinder keys will be hidden within the key fob, and slide out when a button on the key fob is depressed. Once this button is pressed, the laser cut key can be pulled free. Remember to put this key back in the slot until it clicks and locks into place. If your car key replacement requires a laser key to be cut, this is no issue. All it requires is a laser car key cutter. Lock Surgeon can cut that laser key, and get you back to feeling safe knowing that you will always have access to your car.
