Copy or new key?
A copy is cut from an existing key. If no working key exists, the technician can decode the lock or rekey it and cut a fresh key. If old keys may be in the wrong hands, a rekey is the better choice because it makes those keys useless.
Getting a good fit
Worn keys can be copied with the wear included, which makes them stick. Where possible the technician cuts to the original code rather than copying a worn key, so the new key turns smoothly.
Restricted keys
Some high-security systems only allow keys to be cut with proof of authorization, such as a key card. Bring it to the visit so there are no delays.
