Key Cutting Near Me in Dublin: Where to Get Keys Cut
A spare key goes missing at the worst moment, and Dublin has plenty of options, but not all of them publish what they charge or how long a cut takes. Woodie’s says its key bar is offered in all 36 stores (Woodie’s (retailer key bar page)), which makes it the clearest starting point, though its price still needs confirming by phone.

Six data points, one gap: the retailers publish availability and UK prices, but none publishes a price for an Irish key cut.

How much should a key cut cost?
How much is a key cut at Tesco?
- No Tesco key cutting price appears in the supplied sources, so this article gives no figure.
- Tesco key cutting availability is also unconfirmed, which matters for any price comparison.
How much to cut keys at B&Q?
- B&Q UK charges £7.00 for a single key cut and £14.00 for three keys under its 3-for-2 promotion (B&Q retailer service page).
- B&Q Club members receive 10% off key cutting (B&Q retailer service page).
- Both figures are UK prices. The supplied Irish store pages list the key cutting service but no price.
How much does it cost to duplicate a key at Mr. Quickie?
- The supplied sources contain no Mr. Quickie price, so no figure is given for duplication.
- The only Irish price ranges in the evidence are community-reported, and they are covered in the next section.
The only published price comes from a UK chain, while the Irish ranges are low-confidence community reports. A Dublin buyer has no firm local figure to hold a quote against.
The implication: Treat £7.00 as a UK benchmark, not an Irish quote, until a store confirms its own price in writing.
Where is the cheapest place to copy a key?
Woodie’s key cutting price
- Woodie’s does not publish key cutting prices on its official pages, according to BritishBulletin.uk (independent price guide).
- Woodie’s confirms key cutting at its key bar across all stores (Woodie’s retailer key bar page), so availability is not the open question. The price is.
Community and UK benchmark prices
- Community sources reportedly put Dublin independent door key cuts at roughly €3.50–€6.50 (UK Stylemag (secondary price guide)).
- A Dublin Amiens Street service reportedly charged €6.50 for a new key and €4.50 for a spare, based on Boards.ie data cited in the same guide (UK Stylemag secondary price guide).
- Timpson standalone UK locations reportedly charge £4.50–£8 for standard keys, a secondary estimate (UK Stylemag secondary price guide).
- Locksmiths.co.uk says standard front door cylinder key cuts start from £5.25, with security keys up to £20 (Locksmiths.co.uk trade price guide).
No provider can be named as cheapest yet. The Irish ranges are low-confidence community reports, and the one published retailer price is a UK figure, so ranking Woodie’s against independents would be a guess.
The trade-off: Woodie’s gives the widest confirmed coverage, but its price stays unknown until a store quotes one, so the cheapest label belongs to nobody yet.
Does Tesco do key cutting?
Can you get keys cut in woodies?
- Yes. Woodie’s says key cutting is available at the key bar in all 36 stores (Woodie’s in-store services page).
- Its store locator finds the nearest store by address or current location (Woodie’s in-store services page).
- Store counts conflict: Woodie’s own pages say 36, while some secondary articles say 35 (Woodie’s in-store services page).
Five providers, one pattern: only Woodie’s and B&Q have published key cutting details in the supplied sources, while Tesco and Mr. Quickie have none.
| Provider | Irish availability in sources | Published price | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Woodie’s | All stores, via the key bar | Not published | Woodie’s retailer key bar page |
| B&Q | Liffey Valley and Swords confirmed | £7.00 UK single cut; no euro price | B&Q retailer service page |
| Tesco | Not confirmed | None found | No supplied source |
| Mr. Quickie | Not confirmed | None found | No supplied source |
| Dublin independents | Many listed in directories | Reportedly €3.50–€6.50 | UK Stylemag secondary price guide |
What this means: Tesco’s answer is missing rather than negative. The supplied sources simply do not cover it, so no one should read silence as a yes or a no.
How long does it take to duplicate a key at MR. Quickie?
Key cutting near me open now
- No turnaround time for Mr. Quickie appears in the supplied sources.
- B&Q Liffey Valley is open 7am–8pm Monday to Saturday and 10am–6pm on Sunday (B&Q Liffey Valley retailer store page).
- B&Q Swords keeps the same Monday to Saturday and Sunday hours (B&Q Swords (retailer store page)).
- B&Q’s machine cuts a key in under three minutes, according to its UK service page (B&Q retailer service page).
- Williams Locksmiths lists 9:00am–5:30pm Monday to Friday, with weekends marked “call to confirm” (Locksmiths.co.uk trade directory listing).
Listed hours are a schedule, not live status. None of the supplied sources shows whether a store is open at the moment you read this, so check by phone before you leave.
The trade-off: A three-minute machine cut only helps if the store has the machine, and B&Q warns that not all of its stores do (B&Q retailer service page).
Where can you get keys cut near me in Dublin?
Key cutting Dublin near me
- Crothers Security Ltd, 139 St Peters Road, Walkinstown, is listed with keys among its services (Golden Pages (directory listing, Dublin 12)).
- Locktec Master Locksmiths is listed at Unit 412, Level 2, Dundrum Shopping Centre (Golden Pages (directory listing, Dundrum)).
- Dyno Locks Lucan covers Dublin 20 from Adamstown, and Expert Security Ltd is listed at 37 Amiens St, Dublin 1 (Golden Pages (directory listing, Ireland)).
Key cutting Blanchardstown

Cheap key cutting near me
- Williams Locksmiths, Bow Lane East, Dublin 2, lists a 24-hour emergency mobile service and key cutting, including car keys (Locksmiths.co.uk trade directory listing).
- The directory pages do not state their ranking criteria, so any “best” or “cheap” label is unverified.
- No supplied source confirms a low price for any named Dublin provider.
Two B&Q Dublin stores, one pattern: both list the same key machine and the same hours, and only the Swords entry adds timber cutting.
| Detail | B&Q Liffey Valley | B&Q Swords |
|---|---|---|
| Address | Clondalkin, D22 E892 | Airside Retail Park |
| Key cutting | My Key Machine | My Key Machine |
| Timber cutting | Not listed on the supplied page | Listed |
| Monday to Saturday | 7am–8pm | 7am–8pm |
| Sunday | 10am–6pm | 10am–6pm |
| Store page | B&Q Liffey Valley retailer store page | B&Q Swords (retailer store page) |
What this means: A Dublin walk-in gets the same key machine and the same Sunday hours at either store, so distance should decide the choice. The Swords timber entry only matters if you also need wood cut.
What is confirmed and what is not
Confirmed
- Woodie’s offers key cutting at its key bar in all its stores (Woodie’s retailer key bar page)
- B&Q Liffey Valley lists My Key Machine key cutting (B&Q Liffey Valley retailer store page)
- B&Q UK charges £7.00 for a single key cut (B&Q retailer service page)
- Williams Locksmiths lists car key cutting and a 24-hour emergency service (Locksmiths.co.uk trade directory listing)
Unclear
- Current euro prices at Woodie’s and B&Q Ireland, since Woodie’s publishes none (BritishBulletin.uk independent price guide)
- Whether Tesco or Mr. Quickie offers key cutting in Ireland or the UK
- Turnaround time for a duplicate at Mr. Quickie or any other provider
- Whether any listed opening hours are current
- Which provider is cheapest
- Woodie’s store count: 36 on its own pages, 35 in secondary articles
- The legal position on copying a key without the owner’s permission, which the supplied sources do not cover
Keymasters Lock & Safe and an 80 Dame Street locksmith are left out, because the supplied research has no source link for either and a listing without a URL cannot be checked. One top result points to Cork, which falls outside this Dublin-focused piece.
The implication: Every confirmed line above is about where a key can be cut. Every unclear line is about what it will cost or how long it will take.
What the retailers say
We offer a quick and convenient key cutting service at the Woodie’s key bar, available in all 36 stores.
Woodie’s, official in-store services page
We have teamed up with Timpson to give our in-store customers a great, precision key cutting service in under 3 minutes.
B&Q, official key cutting service page
Please be aware not all of our stores have key cutting machines.
B&Q, official key cutting service page
The pattern: Both chains speak with confidence about the service, but B&Q’s own warning turns machine availability into a store-by-store question rather than a brand-wide promise.
Where that leaves you
For a Dublin buyer who needs a key cut this week, the evidence supports two confirmed routes: a Woodie’s key bar in any of its stores, or the My Key Machine at B&Q Liffey Valley or Swords. Both still need a phone call for current hours and a price, and every independent figure in the directories stays unverified until it is in writing. For a buyer who needs certainty today, the choice is clear: confirm the price and hours at the nearest Woodie’s or B&Q counter before you travel, and treat any independent quote as a guess until it is confirmed.
