If your key is stamped 'Do Not Duplicate' or has an unusual profile, hardware-store kiosks won't help. Here's how restricted-key duplication actually works in SLC.
Restricted keys have patented blank profiles only available to authorized dealers. They cannot be legally cut without authorization paperwork on file.
Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Abloy, Schlage Primus, Assa, and several others.
When the original system is installed, the keyholder signs an authorization card kept on file with the locksmith. Future copies require matching ID and the card.
For everyday Schlage and Kwikset keys, we cut while-you-wait at any Salt Lake City address — no shop visit required.
