Our experienced technicians cut keys with precision, check every duplicate before it leaves the counter, and ensure your new key functions perfectly in your lock.
Types of Keys We Duplicate
Residential Keys
We duplicate keys for all standard residential lock types, including single and double cylinder deadbolts, doorknobs, levers, padlocks, and mailbox locks. We carry a wide range of residential key blanks for all major brands, including Schlage, Kwikset, and others, and our stock includes both current profiles and older cuts for locks that have been in service for many years.
Commercial Keys
Commercial key duplication requires accuracy and attention to key control—particularly in master key systems where the wrong cut can compromise the entire system. Benson's Lock Service duplicates commercial keys with the precision that commercial applications demand, and we can advise on key control measures to protect your business from unauthorized duplication.
High-Security Keys
High-security keys feature patented profiles and restricted key blanks that are not available through regular hardware stores. As certified Schlage Primus and Medeco dealers, Benson's Lock Service is an authorised source for high-security key duplication—ensuring you receive a genuine, properly cut key rather than an inferior copy. High-security key duplication is available only to authorised users with proof of ownership.
Automotive Keys
We duplicate a wide range of automotive keys, including standard cut keys, transponder keys, chip keys, and VATS keys for domestic vehicles and motorcycles. Transponder key duplication includes the cutting of the key blade and the programming of the embedded chip — both handled in our store on modern, properly calibrated equipment.
Specialty & Hard-to-Find Keys
Benson's Lock Service is known throughout Indian River County as the shop to visit when other shops say they cannot help. Our extensive key inventory includes profiles for older locks, unusual key types, decorative keys, and other specialty cuts that are difficult to source elsewhere. If you have a key that nobody else can duplicate, bring it to us—we very likely have the blank.
Frequently Asked Questions — Key Duplication
How long does key duplication take?
Standard residential and commercial key duplication is typically completed while you wait — most keys take just a few minutes to cut and check. Automotive key duplication that includes transponder programming takes a little longer depending on the vehicle but is generally completed within the same visit. We will give you an accurate time estimate when you bring your key in.
Can you duplicate a key if I only have a worn or damaged original?
In many cases, yes. Worn keys can be challenging to duplicate accurately because the cuts have been rounded by use. Our experienced technicians assess the key carefully and, if necessary, can reference the lock or manufacturer specifications to ensure the duplicate is cut accurately. In some cases where a key is too worn, we may recommend rekeying or replacing the lock for the most reliable result.
Can you make a key from a lock without the original key?
Yes. This process is known as key origination and involves disassembling the lock cylinder, reading the internal pin configuration, and cutting a new key to match. We offer this service for residential and some commercial applications. For automotive applications, key origination from the VIN or lock is also possible for many domestic vehicles. Contact us with your specific situation, and we will advise on the best approach.
