Bike shops and keys?

Anybody know the connection between bike shops and locksmiths/key making. Just saw a photo of my hometown circa 1945 and there was a "Bicycle and Key" sign on a storefront.

Also the local Schwinn store when I was growing up made keys. And the Schwinn store in the next town over made keys as well. Any Idea why these two businesses go hand in hand?
