Stellar delivers cutting-edge technology directly to your car, boat or motorcycle.
When Cory Schmidt began his locksmithing career in 1994, the industry was very different than it is today. In 2000, he opened his own business — A 2 Z Lock and Key, which remains in operation to service the traditional lock and key mechanisms that are still currently found on most residential homes and commercial buildings. Four years later, when technology began to play a major role in the world of automotive locksmithing, Cory launched a second company — Stellar Keys and Remotes, which exclusively services the newer and higher-end vehicles that standard locksmithing methods are unable to support.
Know the facts. It’s not necessary to go to a dealership.
In recent years, keys have changed from a simple piece of laser-cut metal to a highly technical piece of equipment. While this rapid advancement in technology offers more convenience and increased levels of security, it can also be a source of stress for vehicle owners. The days of walking into the nearest hardware store to make a handful of copies of your keys are quickly coming to an end.
There’s no need to sweat over lost or broken keys — Stellar has you covered.
Although the computer technology behind chipped keys and remote keyless entry gets more advanced every day, it’s not as complicated and unmanageable as you may have been led to believe. While it’s not rocket science, it does require proper knowledge and equipment. That’s what Stellar Keys and Remotes has to offer — along with the added bonus of quick, onsite, same day service (or emergency one hour service) and prices that are typically 50-70% lower than what the dealerships will charge.
