What Ford Key Systems Do We Program?

PATS transponder keys, Intelligent Access smart fobs, and standard remote keys. Ford's Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) has been standard since 1996. Older models use 4D-63 chips. 2015+ models use the 128-bit 4D-63 or newer HiTag Pro chips.

Intelligent Access (Ford's smart key system) is found on 2011+ models. We program both the proximity detection and the push-to-start function. No dealer trip needed.

How Much Does a Ford Key Cost?

Standard PATS key: $100-$150. Remote head key: $125-$175. Intelligent Access fob: $200-$250. Ford keys are among the most affordable to replace because the chip technology is well-documented and the blanks are widely available.

The Ford F-150 is the best-selling vehicle in America and one of our most common calls. We carry F-150 key blanks for every year from 1998 to present.
