You could already do that by just taking a photo of the key, or using a pen and paper, or press it in a piece of cheese. Basically, half of the stuff one already has at hand could be used to achieve the same goal.
Also I am glad that my keys/locks have security features from the current millenium. Makes it a pain to pick or duplicate (yes even non maliciously, the local locksmith needed to order specially stuff just for me when I needed an extra key)
Do you care to share what special type of lock you use?
I wasn't able to find it online. It came with the house.
It is a flat key that has grooves, normal teeth on the edges, two parallel rows of sparse dimples on the top and two balls that can sink and rise, one large one small.
If anybody knows where to buy more of these, let me know. I only found ones that have some of those features, but not all at once.
I can't share a photo nor company name since I am out of town for a while and I stored it away. It was some european b2b manufacturer iirc.
No worries, thanks for trying to explain it
