Can a bad key affect your lock?
The answer to that is yes.
🔑
Using a worn-out key copy can cause damage to the internal components of your lock over time. If a key doesn’t align correctly with the pins inside the lock, it can create unnecessary wear, make the lock harder to operate, and in some cases can lead to complete lock failure.
🔑
A key should turn smoothly and operate the lock without sticking, forcing, or causing any resistance.🔑
