Hi,
Coming from the UK and hiring an RV. Would like to take a precaution and get a couple of spare sets of keys cut so we've all got a set in case they get lost.
Can anyone recommend somewhere in Reno that can cut RV keys (door & ignition)? Last time we did this it was a bit of a nightmare trying to find somewhere that was open, so if someone KNOWS somewhere in Reno that does this, then that would be awesome to know.
Cheers!

if its a standard rv with a truck cab up front Home Depot can do the front door / ignition keys. The side RV door they didn't have blanks for.

Thanks. Seeing as I'm picking up about $5,000 of stuff from Home Depot in Reno for our project maybe they'll throw those spares in for free!

Seriously - it won't be long before they start charging extra if you want a printed receipt.

"aint nothin free" - well, except at Burning Man! 
Now if only someone could set up a key-cutting workshop there, now THAT would be popular!

i've used desert locksmith 836 w. 5th several times.
and they are near the savemart on keystone which is burner friendly if you need to stock up on groceries/water/etc or pick up potential rideshares.

Dont go to homedepot!!!! They cannot copy newer model vehicle keys - i.e. keys that are "laser" cut. I tried to get a copy of my truck key there and they failed everytime. Just a FYI

OK. Well I'll try HomeDepot as I'm there anyway.
So where did you end up getting them done?
