Have you lost your keys? We’ve all been there at some point.
For many, the solution is to hire a locksmith and get the entire lock changed — but why do that when you can just get it replaced instead?
Or, perhaps, you’ve still got yours but want a spare copy.
At Shoppers Supply, we offer services from copying to cutting at our Chandler, Apache Junction, and Gilbert locations.

If you need an extra set of keys for your home, our copying is the service for you. When you come to any of our shops, we take your original one and use it as a guide.
We start by placing the original into our duplication machine in one of the machine’s two ports. A blank, which we’ll turn into your key copy, will occupy the other.
Using precision techniques, our keysmith saws the blank to match the pattern of your original. The timeline for the process is often no more than a few minutes, and by the end of it, you’ll have a new one.
Think of blank keys as raw material for creating a duplicate. To get your new one right the first time, you’ll have to choose the right kind of blank.
Fortunately, we offer several kinds, including:
At a glance, cutting and copying may seem like the same thing. After all, both require the same type of machine for molding a blank key.
Believe it or not, the two tasks are different, and knowing which one to get can save you time and headaches.
Let’s start with key copying. As the name suggests, this hardware service is all about taking a blank and molding it to the shape of one that you already have. People choose this service in situations where they want multiple people to have copies or a spare in case they lose one.
And speaking of losing keys, what happens when you need a duplicate but you’ve lost your copy? That’s when you come to any of our hardware stores near you for our key-cutting service.
Unlike house key copying, cutting involves making a new identical one from scratch, but be aware.
Only choose this service if you’re sure your keys weren’t stolen. When in doubt, you may have to change your lock altogether for security purposes.
Once you’ve gotten your new keys made, you should store them correctly to prevent rust and, most importantly, loss.
Accessible cabinets are safe bets, but if security is a concern, keep yours on your person or alongside something you frequently touch, like your car keys or even your wallet. To do this, accessories are your best bet. There are numerous ones in our inventory, from keychains to key rings and hiders.
Whether you want new car keys from scratch or a set of duplicate house keys, choose a keymaker who’s nearest you in Queen Creek, AJ, San Tan Valley & Mesa Arizona.
More than a trusted name in livestock and feeds, we’re AZ’s go-to spot for hardware supplies and services, including duplicating, cutting and copying.
