Hobe Sound is a wealthy low-key enclave on the south end of Martin County, home to estate properties, the Greg Norman-designed Medalist Golf Club, and the Hobe Sound National Wildlife Refuge - approximately 13,900 residents in the CDP - historically understated wealth, home at various times to celebrities, professional athletes, and Fortune 500 executives. The community was developed as a winter retreat in the early 20th century - the area's post office has served Hobe Sound since the 1890s and remains a community landmark, and today Hobe Sound is unincorporated community in southern Martin County, bordering Jupiter Island to the east and Tequesta (Palm Beach County) to the south. The city's character - Hobe Sound National Wildlife Refuge, Jonathan Dickinson State Park, Medalist Village golf community, and understated private luxury - shapes the locksmith work we do here.
Car key programming encodes a new key or key fob to work with your vehicle's security system. Modern vehicles (1998+) have immobilizer systems requiring programmed transponder chips - without programming, a cut key won't start the engine even if it physically fits the ignition. We provide on-site programming using professional equipment.
