Key Blanks 1004AL L5 Vancouver

Keys snap. It usually happens at the narrow neck between the bow and the blade after years of being used as a lever to pull a door shut, and the half left in the lock is the part you need. If that is how you ended up looking at the 1004AL L5, bring both pieces with you. We can usually read a broken key well enough to cut a replacement, either by holding the halves together on the duplicator or by measuring the cut depths and cutting to code on our code machine. If the tip is still stuck inside the cylinder, extracting it first is part of the job, and we can do that at the counter if the cylinder is out or on site at the door. The 1004AL L5 label refers to a specific profile; your key bow or an old copy may carry the same marking. If it does not, we compare the blank with your key by length, shoulder and groove pattern before cutting. Once cut, we deburr and check the new key against what remains of the old one. Our counter is at 4105 Macdonald St if you would like to bring the pieces in.
