All questions
How much does key cutting cost at Golden Finger?
Car key cutting starts from AED 30, and standard building or door keys are priced at the counter depending on the key type. We always confirm the exact price with you before cutting, so there are no surprises when you pay.
Can you make a car key with a chip or remote?
Yes. Modern car keys usually contain a transponder chip that must be programmed to your vehicle before the car will start. Bring the car to our Al Satwa shop or ask us about a visit, and we will cut the key blade and program the chip to match.
How much does car key programming cost?
Car key reprogramming starts from AED 150. The final price depends on your car make, model and the type of key — remote, flip key or smart key. Tell us your vehicle details when you call and we will give you a firm quote first.
I am locked out of my car. Can you help?
Yes — car lockout service starts from AED 80. We use non-damaging entry methods to get you back in without harming the lock or door. Timing depends on traffic and your location in Dubai; when you call, we will tell you honestly how long we expect to take.
What are your opening hours?
We are open 24/7. That means you can visit or call us any day of the week, including weekends. Our landline is +971 4 332 9793 and our mobile/WhatsApp is +971 56 167 7909.
Where is Golden Finger Key Cutting located?
Our shop is at Shop 267, D90 Street, Al Satwa, Dubai, near Satwa Masjid. If you know Al Satwa, we are on D90 Street close to the mosque — look for our signage, or call us and we will guide you in.
How much does rekeying a lock cost?
Rekeying starts from AED 60 per lock. Rekeying changes the lock's internal pins so your old keys stop working and a new set works instead — a practical option when you have moved premises or lost a key and the lock itself is in good condition.
Should I repair my lock or replace it?
Lock repair starts from AED 60. If the lock body is sound and the problem is wear, a stiff mechanism or a broken key, repair is usually the cheaper fix. If the lock is damaged beyond repair or offers poor security, we will say so and quote a replacement before doing any work.
Do you come to my area?
We serve Al Satwa, Jumeirah, Al Wasl, Karama, Bur Dubai, Downtown Dubai, Palm Jumeirah and Dubai Marina, plus nearby neighbourhoods. Call or WhatsApp +971 56 167 7909 with your location and we will confirm whether we can reach you and give you a time estimate.
Do I get a quote before you start work?
Yes — always. We agree the price with you before any cutting, programming or lock work begins, and that is the price you pay. Payment is discussed at the shop or when you call; there are no hidden charges added afterwards.
