How opening works
The technician identifies the lock type and tries non-destructive methods first. Many cabinet locks can be picked or decoded, then a new key is cut. If a cylinder must be removed, it is replaced with a new one keyed to you.
Better key control
For offices, consider keying cabinets to a small number of keys and keeping a key log. Some cabinets can take a restricted-key cylinder for sensitive records.
