automotive key cutting

[dansmith11]

hey does anyone know of a good place to get car keys copied?

trying to get a new key made for my altezza. i went to calgary lock and safe, and they did a horrible job and the copy looks nothing like the original and does not work at all, and they won't "warranty" or guarantee their work because it was my own blank key i brought in and didn't buy it from them or some such nonsense.

it's the type of key that is square on the outside and the middle is cut out. just need a straight physical copy, no transponder programming or anything.

anyone have a recommendation of a reliable place in town to copy such a key?

Lowes/Canadian Tire?

I’ve had keys cut at CT and they’ve turned out fine...if you have a blank they will cut it for free in my experience.

Yup Walmart also. Canadian Tire always does a good job. Generally when I need a key cut ( off topic) it’s straight to the old Retiree at Home Depot. Always perfect

Aboe lockworks on Center has always cut my bike/car/truck keys for me. Unless it's a built in FOB, they always have some ultra rare keys in stock. Never an issue. Cheap too, $5/key
