Chevrolet Key Types and Chevrolet Key Fob Replacement
Chevrolet key designs vary by year and model. Older trucks and vans, up to about 2006, commonly used plain metal keys. Most models from about 2007 use chip keys, with flip-style and smart keys appearing on later vehicles. We confirm the exact year and model by phone before arranging the right service.
Plain metal keys
Many older Chevrolet trucks and vans used a cut metal key without a transponder chip. The key’s cuts match the vehicle’s lock and ignition. If your Chevrolet has this type, we can check the key details and cut a replacement on site.
Transponder chip keys
A transponder key has a metal blade and a chip that communicates with the vehicle’s security system. Most Chevrolet models from about 2007 use chip keys, though the exact setup depends on the year and model. We cut the key and can program it at your car when the vehicle’s system and key type are confirmed.
Remote-head and flip keys
These keys combine a cut blade with remote buttons in the same unit; some flip-style designs fold the blade into the key body. Button functions and chip requirements vary by vehicle. We check the original key, if available, and the vehicle details before identifying the replacement type.
Smart or proximity keys and fobs
Later Chevrolet vehicles may use a smart or proximity key that communicates with the car without being inserted like a traditional key. Some vehicles use a separate remote fob instead. We program key fobs and smart keys at the customer’s car after confirming the year and model.

What to Have Ready When You Call
A few vehicle details help us identify the key type and check what service is appropriate. Have the following information ready when you call.
- Year and model — Tell us the Chevrolet’s year and model. Key systems can differ between model years and vehicles, so we confirm the exact year and model on the phone rather than assuming every Chevrolet uses the same key.
- VIN — Have the vehicle identification number (VIN) available. It helps identify the specific vehicle when we discuss the key or fob service you need.
- Proof of ownership — Be ready to provide proof that you own or are authorized to access the vehicle. If you still have a key or fob, describe it or keep it nearby so we can discuss its shape and buttons.
