Key makes a professional locksmith should service:

Master keys – A master key is a key used to open more than one set of locks. In houses, for example, master keys are usually used to open all the doors in that particular residence, but the other room keys cannot do that.
Car Keys – vehicle keys are made to open car doors, the car trunk and glove compartments as well as being the ignition key for the vehicle itself.
Skeleton Key – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple kind of key which is meant to open drawers and cabinets. Skeleton keys offer very minimal security.

House Keys – there are two types of house keys: house keys for lever locks and house keys for pin tumbler cylinder locks. The difference is in the way they work.

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