The article discusses the costs and processes involved in key duplication in Sibiu, highlighting the differences between house and car keys. Basic house keys can be duplicated for around 15 lei in a matter of seconds, while car keys, especially those with transponders, can cost significantly more and take longer to produce. Local locksmiths, such as Costin Gabi and Marcel Lăpăduș, explain the challenges of duplicating keys, particularly for vehicles, and emphasize the importance of having spare keys. The demand for key duplication increases during the autumn as students and renters require new keys.
