Car Keys – automotive keys are made to open car doors, the car trunk and glove compartments in addition to being the ignition key for the automobile itself.
Skeleton Key – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple type of key that can open drawers and cabinets. A skeleton key offers very little security.
Key Card – a key card is usually a card loaded with digital signature on it. It is used to open electronic access locks which are commonly found in motels and commercial offices.
House Keys – house keys come in two different types: house keys for lever locks and house keys for pin tumbler cylinder locks. The main difference is in the way these keys work.

Cylinder lock keys line up the pins in the lock with the key and the shear line of the cylinder lock which enables it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
