What About “Do Not Duplicate” Keys?
Some high-security keys are marked “Do Not Duplicate” and require authorization from the original locksmith or key manufacturer. River City Lock and Key respects these restrictions and can verify your authorization before duplicating restricted keys.
Why Not Use Hardware Stores?
While hardware store kiosks are convenient, they often:
- Produce inaccurate cuts that damage locks
- Can’t duplicate high-security or restricted keys
- Don’t program transponder or chip keys
- Lack professional locksmith expertise
For precision and reliability, trust a professional locksmith.
