The cost associated with replicating keys at self-service kiosks located within a major home improvement retailer is a significant factor for consumers seeking convenient key duplication services. This cost is influenced by the type of key being copied (standard house key vs. specialized or security key) and the promotional offers available at the time of service.
The availability of key duplication services in readily accessible locations offers several benefits, including time savings and ease of use. Historically, key duplication required a visit to a locksmith or specialized hardware store, which often involved longer wait times and potentially higher costs. Self-service kiosks provide a more streamlined and accessible alternative.
