Back-up keys for U-Bolt locks
Just got the U-Bolt Pro lock and so far it’s fine, but it comes with two “uncommonly” shaped keys that local hardware stores can’t copy. I’ve had 3 copies made at 3 different places that electronically detect which key blank to use, and all 3 failed. U-tec support has not provided useful assistance saying basically it comes with two keys and no more information. Obviously I don’t want to use keys but need them as backup. Why they don’t just provide a key that can be commonly found or sell spares themselves, I don’t understand. Another review on this site stated the user had problems over time, really driving home the need for keys if or when needed.
