- Trust a locksmith to know how to fix worn out car keys. In today's video, Uriah Ortiz and Brian Jarboe discuss and show you how locksmiths fix worn auto keys, or really any key that uses wafers or pins.
Car key blades, much like house keys or other types of keys, are made of brass. Over time, brass tend to wear out as friction shaves more and more of the material away. Pins and wafers are also commonly made of brass and wear the same as your key, only you don't see every detail on pins or wafers from the outside of the lock cylinder.
What this means is that when you get a "fresh" key cut to spec, it may still fail to operate your lock, as the wafers or pins are still as worn.

I've been having problems decoding and cutting a hu101 key. Normally I just hit decode and then cut, but when I decode it land between cuts and I adjust the wear to where I see it lands right on the cuts but when I cut the key it cuts it more square and does not work in the lock. Do you have any suggestions that can help me decode that key. I think it's tip worn and I adjust but 5 keys later I quit. Oh I decoded and cut other hu101 and it works fine is just that one key that's driving me crazy. Thanks.
Kind of like reverse engineering. I learned a new use for a HPC 1200.
Thanks guys!
