Can a locksmith make a tubular key?

Not all locksmiths can make tubular keys because there is a special machine that is required for the job. It will be a good idea to ask the locksmith first. As much as tubular keys are found in vending machines, they’ve started becoming popular with bike and motorcycle locks.

Is it cheaper to rekey or replace locks?

The key pins in locks are cheaply priced thus making rekeying the affordable alternative compared to replacing the locks. A good example is when you have several doors in your home with different keys. You might want to rekey the locks so that you only need one key to open the doors.

Can tubular keys be duplicated?

This will depend on the locksmith that you’ll be working with. There are those that will replicate the keys according to your specification. Customers get discounts on identical keys while still getting duplicates of the original.
