Hi Steve
We have just got a local shop (Isle of Wight UK) that can cut the keys from
the code number, thus providing a NEW key not a copy of a worn profile. If
you have someone who does the same thing nearby I would recommend this as
the best route. I have not tried our Guy yet but as I have a new lock set
for my PI I may well get a new key cut and see how it works in an unworn
lock.
