<p>Title says it all. I'm not sure if what I have are Medeco keys as they're not labeled "Medeco" but the cut seems more complicated than normal keys.</p>
<p>Any Chinese key-smith will do it for you.</p>
<p>that’s racist</p>
<p>srsly go find some independent keysmith that has like a small shop/kiosk kind of thing theyll do it for you most of the time they dont give two ****s</p>
<p>Thanks but can anyone provide a specific location? I tried a locksmith with an Asian guy in the alley next to Unit 3 today but it was a no go.</p>

<p>not super helpful sorry. I know there’s at least 3 lock places on university.</p>
<p>If the key looks complicated, then good luck. Most people who cut keys buy the blanks that are commonly sold. However, if a company limits the sale of its blanks, its going to be difficult to find someone who has a blank to cut one for you.</p>
<p>For example, the dorm keys are a pain in the ass to copy. Berkeley Housing contracts a company that uses its own special key sets, thats why it costs a $100 to replace a key. Its for another added layer of security.</p>
<p>When ever I want to duplicate keys, I go to oakland chinatown and get a copy done for about $2. They either dont care about the do not duplicate sign or cant read english. As long as the key works, I ain’t complaining.</p>
<p>Finally, there is always the possibility of you machining your own key. There are numerous machine shops on campus… and <em>cough</em> <em>cough</em> if you you really wanted too, you could cut your own copy, though it would take quite a bit of skill.</p>
