Why Get Spare Keys Made
A spare key is the cheapest insurance against a lockout. Having one with a trusted neighbor or family member can save you a call to a home locksmith on a bad day. Copies also make life easier when someone new joins the household, a teen starts driving, or a dog walker needs access.
Because we are mobile, the key cutting comes to you. That is handy if you are juggling work and family, or if you need several keys for different doors and would rather not carry them around town.
A copy only works if the original still works. If your key is badly worn, a copy of it can be just as unreliable. In that case we can often cut a fresh key to the lock’s original code instead.
Keys People Ask Us to Copy
Bring out the key you want copied. We confirm on the phone whether we can cut it.
- Front and back door house keys
- Deadbolt keys
- Garage entry and side door keys
- Mailbox keys (where allowed)
- Padlock keys
- Shed, gate and RV storage keys
- Basic car keys and some chip keys
- Office and business keys (non-restricted)
Some keys cannot be copied. Keys stamped “Do Not Duplicate” on a restricted keyway, many high-security keys and some cluster mailbox keys need authorization. For cars, chip keys and fobs often need programming as well as cutting. See car key replacement for those.

Copy, Rekey or Replace?
A spare key is not always the answer. Here is how to choose.
Get copies
Your keys work, you know where they all are, and you just need more of them.
Rekey the lock
A key is missing, or you do not know who has copies. Rekey the locks so old keys stop working, then get fresh copies.
Replace a car key
Your car key is lost or has a chip or remote. It may need cutting and programming.
What Affects the Price of Key Copies
Key copies are priced by the type of key and how many you need. Standard house keys are the simplest. High-security keys and car keys with chips cost more. Because we come to you, the trip itself is part of the price, so ordering several keys at once is the best value. We quote before we cut. See locksmith prices for more detail.
Where to Keep a Spare Key
A spare key only helps if you can reach it and a stranger cannot. Under the doormat, above the door frame and inside a fake rock are the first places a burglar checks. Better options:
- Leave a spare with a trusted neighbor or nearby family member.
- Keep one at work or in a locked desk, if you often lock yourself out of the house.
- Use a quality lockbox with a combination you change from time to time.
- Consider a keypad deadbolt so you can get in without a key at all.
And keep a simple list of who has copies. If that list ever gets fuzzy, it is time to rekey.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you come to me to copy keys?
Yes. We are a mobile locksmith, so we cut key copies at your home or business in Fernley.
Can you copy a key marked "Do Not Duplicate"?
It depends on the key. Some are true restricted keys that need authorization from the owner or the key system. Others are standard keys with a stamp. Ask us and we will check.
How much is it to duplicate a car key?
It depends on the key. A plain metal key is simple, while chip keys and remotes also need programming. Call with your year, make and model for a quote.
My copy from a store does not work well. Can you help?
Often, yes. Copies of worn keys or poorly cut copies can stick. We can cut a fresh key, sometimes from the lock code, so it works smoothly.
