A restricted keyway is a patented key profile (the cross-section of the key) that only authorized dealers can stock and cut. Hardware stores cannot legally — or physically — cut a restricted key, which means an unauthorized person cannot walk in off the street with your key and walk out with a copy.

Restricted keys are the right answer for any building, business, or home where unauthorized copies would be a real risk — multi-tenant buildings, offices with turnover, divorced households, vacation rentals, and high-value properties.

Restricted-key systems also support master keying, audit trails, and re-pin events when staff or tenants change — all without re-keying the entire building.

Minkel is an authorized dealer and cutter for Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, ASSA, and Schlage Primus. Restricted keys are cut only with signed authorization from your designated person, photo ID, and your account on file.
