Automotive Keys – vehicle keys are used to open car doors, trunks and glove compartments as well as being the ignition key for the automobile itself.
Skeleton Key – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple kind of key used to open drawers and cabinets. A skeleton key offers very little security.
Key Card – a key card is usually a card loaded with an electronic signature on it. Key cards are used to open electronic access control locks which are often found in motels and offices.
House Keys – there are two types of house keys: house keys for lever locks and house keys for pin tumbler cylinder locks. The main difference is in the way these keys operate. Lever lock keys lift flat levers in the lock allowing the levers to line up and move a bolt back and forth. Cylinder lock keys line up the pins in the lock with the key and the shear line of the cylinder lock enabling it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
