Lincoln Key Duplication: Options and Process

If you need a duplicate key for your Lincoln, you have several options to consider, each with its advantages and price points. Whether you're looking to buy pre-cut keys online and program them yourself, visit a dealer or locksmith store, or have a mobile locksmith come to your location, there are efficient ways to duplicate your Lincoln key. This guide explains each option in detail to help you choose the best solution for your key duplication needs.


Buying Pre-Cut Lincoln Keys Online and DIY Programming

Duplicating a Lincoln key can be a cost-effective solution if you purchase a pre-cut key or remote online and program it yourself. Some older Lincoln models allow DIY programming, while newer models may require specialized tools.


DIY Key Programming Instructions

  1. Insert the original key into the ignition and turn it to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
  2. Wait for the immobilizer light to turn off (if applicable), then turn the key back to "OFF" and remove it.
  3. Insert the new key and turn it to the "ON" position.
  4. Wait for the immobilizer light to go off again, indicating the key has been programmed.

DIY Remote Programming

For keyless entry remotes, follow the following instructions to program the remote yourself. Older Lincoln models may allow manual programming, while newer ones may require professional tools.


Keys That Require Professional Programming

Some newer Lincoln transponder and smart keys require specialized diagnostic tools for programming. Dealerships typically refuse to program aftermarket keys, so a locksmith is often the best option.


Pricing for Key Duplication

  • Pre-cut standard key: $30 - $100
  • DIY remote programming: Free (if supported) or $50 - $100
  • Transponder key with locksmith programming: $100 - $250
  • Smart key with locksmith programming: $200 - $500

Duplicating Lincoln Keys at a Dealer or Locksmith Store

Another reliable option is to visit a Lincoln dealership or locksmith store. Dealers have access to your vehicle’s key codes through the VIN, and they can create a duplicate that works perfectly with your vehicle's security system. Dealerships tend to charge more for key duplication, with prices ranging from $150 to $500, depending on the type of key (traditional, transponder, or smart).


Locksmith stores are usually a more affordable alternative to dealerships and offer competitive pricing. Many locksmiths are equipped with the same tools and technology as dealerships to cut and program Lincoln keys. Depending on the model and key type, locksmiths typically charge between $100 and $350 for key duplication and programming.


Duplicating Lincoln Keys with a Mobile Locksmith

For added convenience, you can choose to use a mobile locksmith service. Mobile locksmiths bring the key-cutting and programming equipment to your location, allowing you to avoid towing your vehicle to a dealership or store. This is especially helpful if you've lost all your keys or are stranded and unable to drive to a locksmith.


Mobile locksmith services for Lincoln key duplication generally cost between $150 and $350, depending on the key type and programming needs. This option saves you time and offers the benefit of having the service completed wherever your vehicle is parked.
