Key Blanks for Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Key Blanks

A wide variety of Chevrolet Silverado 1500 key blanks can be found. These blanks include both physical keys as well as programmable fobs for keyless entry. Key blanks serve as excellent replacements for lost or missing keys and can also add an element of customization to your truck.

For anti-theft reasons, not all keyless entry remote fobs work on all vehicles. Generally, the key fob you received when you purchased your Silverado was specifically programmed for your vehicle. Before use, a replacement key fob needs to be reprogrammed and paired with your vehicle. The recommended way to do this is to go to your GM or Chevrolet dealer and have them professionally reprogram your fob. Some key fobs can be programmed by the truck owner and come with instructions. Chipped keys may need to be programmed alongside remote entry key fobs.

Key blanks for Chevy pickups are not yet keys and will not function until new keys are made. The key blank is used by a locksmith as a starting point for making a new key. To make sure you purchase the right key blanks for your Chevrolet Silverado 1500, match your current key size and style with the key blanks. You may also search based on your model year and trim level.

Nearly any key maker, such as those at hardware stores, can make a physical copy of your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 key using these blanks. Most doors on Chevy pickups will unlock from copied keys, but not all copied keys will start a vehicle. Contemporary models often require chipped keys to start the ignition. These can only be programmed at an authorized Chevrolet or GM dealer.

Key blanks come in several shapes and styles. Different sizes of key are appropriate for different Chevrolet models. Some key blanks come with the Chevrolet logo imprinted on their grip. Others come with the GM logo. Depending on availability, custom or aftermarket key blanks can be used to add an element of flair or personalization to your Chevrolet Silverado 1500.

Key blanks for Silverado 1500 pickup trucks are universal for this model of Chevrolet, regardless of the vehicles motors, powertrain, or customization options. Any key style appropriate for a standard Silverado 1500 will work for LTZ models, models with the Z71 off-road package, and even for the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Hybrid. Locks and entry are also standardized.
