Key Blanks 01007RA Vancouver

The R-series keyways are a separate branch of Sargent's lettered family, and the 01007RA carries the RA profile. You will not be able to tell RA from LA by the cut edge alone; the difference is in the milling along the flat sides of the blade, and that is what decides whether a key enters a given cylinder. Code cutting is a good fit for RA keys. Many Sargent cylinders in commercial buildings were set up from a bitting list, and if your facilities office still has that list, we can produce a key that matches the original specification exactly instead of copying a key that has been worn down. That is especially handy when you need several identical keys for a team. For a one-off copy, bring the working key. We cut it on a duplicator, remove the burrs and compare it with the original under light, then check it slides in without catching. Not every RA-looking key really is RA, so we confirm the profile at the counter before cutting. If you have the cylinder out of the door, bring that along as well. The shop is at 4105 Macdonald St in Kitsilano.
