Master Keys
The master key is often confused and compared with the infamous skeleton key for a reason. Much like the latter, master keys are capable of opening numerous locks. However, the utility of master keys hasn't been lost to time. On the contrary, they've become more and more useful over the years.
Master keys are purposely designed by locksmiths and manufacturers to open several locks within a given set or system, making it easier for authorized users to gain access to myriad security locks. This is also what separates them from skeleton keys, which are only able to access numerous locks through circumvention.
Unlike antique keys and skeleton keys, master keys remain more practical than aesthetic, more serviceable than collectible. And since these keys are particularly common and very much used, quality locksmith companies include the manufacture and duplication of these keys (and the installation of their corresponding locks) in their locksmith services. This assures all interested in acquiring them of easy purchase for personal use.
