These are machine keys I need a spare set for. Duplicating them in Durban has proved difficult.

I have visited a few locksmiths with this request. Some say they don't have the machine to do the job , and those who do say the template keys come from China and they don't have any.

Do you know of anywhere that can duplicate these keys? I'll pay R100 into your account for a referring me to a place that successfully duplicates them in Durban.

If not - do you know what this key type is called? Any info on where blank keys can be bought? (Local or International - I'll courier them in)

ANY clues or info would be appreciated. The keys are unmarked except for an "01" stamped on the top left of each key.

It's called a Tubular Key or Tubular Lock. Security companies used to have them back in the day to arm your alarm from outside. Perhaps some of the older security companies may know where it can be duplicated.
 
Thanks for this info guys. Thats useful.

Its for a cash casette for an old vending machine.
 
Not sure about these specific keys. But doesn't hurt to try the key guy I always use.

In gateway mall, the cobbler... Opposite Vodacom 4u. As you enter from the Game open parking entrance...

Worth a shot, or maybe they will know someone.
