Can't get the copy of the key done. Please help.

Options
Because of the unusual shape of key that we have( There is a cut in the middle of it not just the bottom as usual) we are really struggling to find a place where the key cutters can make the key copies.
Every one says they can not do it which is no good.


Below is the link for the key pic.

    Who is the maker? it looks like it may be a special security key that only the original lock supplier can duplicate.

    Then a quick google brings up many sites that can duplicate them.

    But how safe it is to send it off to those websites? You would have to tell them your address to send it back.
    So you are having the situation of a total stranger having your address and the key from your home

    Get it sent to a friend's house or to your (or a member of your family's) workplace.

    Have you tried a proper locksmith ship, rather than a high street key cutter?

    Find a dealer near you, the google was supposed to give you all the information you need to tell you where to locate a proper locksmith that can cut these keys.
    Not just the ones you need to send the key too.
