Key cutting in Lincoln: the basics
What the job involves
Key cutting is done while you wait at locksmiths, hardware shops and some shoe repairers. Standard house keys are cut from your original; security keys may need the key card or proof of ownership. Car keys with chips need cutting and programming to the car.

Why doesn't my copied key work?
Copies made from worn copies drift slightly each time. Have the next copy cut from the original or a key that works smoothly, and ask the cutter to check it on a gauge.
