KEY DUPLICATION
VS.
KEY CUTTING
KEY DUPLICATION is what professionals do:
Our machine's are calibrated to +/- .002 of an inch. Did you know that if your key is off by more than .006 of an inch it might stick or not even work properly ? Just imagine putting paper into a copy machine. And then copy it,and copy that copy, and copy that copy.
You get the idea. Every time the print is less readable. The same thing happens to a key. If your key is worn out enough where it wont work well ,we can generate a new key to factory specifications. We have the largest selection of key blanks in central Nebraska and if we don't (VERY rare) we can have it in a day or so.
KEY CUTTING is for the big box stores.
How often have you gone to a big box store that advertises
......... "Keys Cut Here" ........?
You wait in long lines. Then you wait for them to figure out what your key is.
And you wait for them to figure out how to get the key in the machine.
Then you get to try the key and hope it works. And if it doesn't work you wait again to get a refund.
How long do you need to wait ? Not long at Al's Lock & Safe !
Come to a professional, with top of the line equipment, for a key that works.
