While my experience is with Vintage Airstreams, I can't imagine that your local locksmiths would have any problem cutting duplicate keys if you took your existing operable keys in along with the necessary blanks. In fact, some locksmiths may even have the blanks. My local locksmith surprised me and had key blanks for both my
1964 Airstream Overlander Land Yacht International as well as my 1978 Argosy Minuet 6.0 Metre. When supplying your own blanks, I would be prepared to pay between $2.00 and $5.00 per key for cutting and the locksmith may not guarantee keys cut on blanks that he doesn't sell. I have had good luck when supplying my own blanks as well as when going with the blanks that my locksmith stocks. I would caution that you will be looking for a locksmith, and not a big box hardware/lumber store although some of the old-fashioned local hardware stores like Ace or True Value might have quality key cutting services.
Good luck with your investigation!
