I got a key cut for mine today. I purchased a genuine blank from our host and got my neighbour who is a mobile locksmith to cut me one. I thought he would just copy my old key but he said is had some wear. He has some pretty clever gear and didn’t want to use my old 43 year old key. He counted the highs and lows along the key and the depth of each one (1 being shallow and 4 being deep - 10 cuts in total on the key) and entered the sequence into his computer. Started the program and the machine cut my key as if it were from the factory. Tried it out and it is way better than the old one.
I would 100% go to a locksmith and get it cut properly preferably as outlined above.
