Got few keys cut for front door...working more or less ok from inside, but sticking a lot from the outside. The original 2 keys work absolutely fine, no issues.

Any ideas/thoughts as what problem could be.
Same locksmith made couple new ones also for back door-no issues at all.
 
Keys aren't cut very well maybe.
Match up and spot difference.
Always get a key cut from a good key vs a worn key.
Any trouble take it back.

Also it's a 5 min job to swap lock barrel and new barrels can come with 5 keys.

Any problems take your own barrel to locksmith to match.

Screwfix have some common barrels and they come with 5 keys and all for £10 so can work out cheaper than keys.
