Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get a replacement key?
In most cases, a standard replacement key can be cut on the spot in just a few minutes. More complex keys, such as those with security features or requiring coding (like automotive or restricted keys), may take longer depending on the key type and equipment needed. Mobile services also allow onsite key cutting when you're unable to visit a locksmith in person.
Can you replace keys without the original?
Yes, locksmiths can often replace a key even if you’ve lost the original. This is done by either decoding the lock, referencing the lock’s code, or using existing key records (in the case of restricted systems). For more secure keys, such as safes or restricted systems, proof of ownership and authorisation may be required to prevent unauthorised duplication.
Why does my duplicate key not work properly?
If a duplicated key sticks, doesn’t turn, or only works occasionally, it may be due to wear on the original key or inaccurate cutting. Over time, worn keys can lose their precision, so duplicates made from them may not match the lock perfectly. It’s best to cut spares from a fresh or master key, or ask a locksmith to decode the lock for a clean cut.
