Know your key type

When buying house keys, especially designer house keys, the main thing you need to keep in mind is the type of key that you want to duplicate. There are many different types of house keys, don’t make the mistake of buying the wrong type. The most common types are KW1 (Kwikset), SC1 (Schlage) and WR5(Weiser).

Key blanks can be correctly identified in one of 3 ways:

• First, a key blank may be identified by the shape of the head of the key. The shape of the head is an invaluable aid in identifying a key blank, but it is not a guarantee of a match. See Figure: Key Type.
• Second, a key blank may be identified by the alpha-numeric code found on the key head. See Figure: Key Type.
• Third, all else fails, ask a local locksmith.

Interchangeable key types:

• KW1 = 66
• KW10 = 97
• KW1 = KW = KW10
• SC1 = 68

Note: KW1 is a 5 pin blank KW11 is a 6 pin blank. KW11 will work in place of a KW1 but not vice versa. The KW11 is usually used in Titan locks.

There are a variety of different keys used throughout the world. We carry two of the most common types, Kwikset & Schlage, right here at Hero's Armory. It's very likely that your key is one of these two, though occasionally, a different type is used, especially outside of the United States. There are few differences between these types of keys, but they are not interchangeable. In the end, it comes down to whatever locks were installed on your door when it was installed.
