Locksmith at MSP Airport
Back from a trip and the keys are locked in the car, lost somewhere on the way, or the key fob will not work? Dr Key Locksmith is a mobile locksmith. We drive to your car in the parking ramps at Minneapolis–St. Paul International Airport, day or night.
What we do at the airport
- Open a locked car when the keys are inside, including keys locked in the trunk.
- Make a replacement car key at your parking spot when the keys are lost or stolen.
- Program a new key fob or remote, or sort out a fob that stopped working while you were away.
- Repair or replace an ignition when the key will not turn or has broken off.
Where we come to you
We work at your car, wherever it is parked: the Terminal 1 ramps (Blue, Red, Green, Gold and Silver), the Terminal 2 ramps (Orange and Purple), the Quick Ride Ramp, and the cell phone waiting lot on Post Road.
We also come to the park-and-fly lots and the hotels along I-494 in Bloomington and Richfield, where many travelers leave their cars.
We cannot come inside the terminal or past security, so we meet you at the vehicle.
What to tell us when you call
- Which terminal and which ramp (the color or name on the signs).
- The level and the row or section number. A photo of the nearest sign helps.
- The year, make and model of the car.
- Whether the keys are locked inside, lost, or not working.
With that we can quote a price on the phone and tell you honestly how long the drive will take before you decide.
Good to know
Have a photo ID ready. We confirm the car is yours before we open it or make a key. If your registration or insurance card is locked inside, we check it once the car is open.
If you lost the keys in the terminal or on the plane, it is worth asking the airport or your airline lost and found first. If they do not turn up, we can make a new key at the car.
If it is a rental car, call the rental company before you call us. Most rental agreements require them to handle lockouts and lost keys.
The airport charges for parking when you drive out. That fee is separate from our work and is paid to the airport.
