Another thought..the keys 1UP uses are not made from commonly available key blanks. I tried to have spare keys made at a couple locksmiths..no go. They don't have the blanks (out of a ~500-1000 different blank types they had on premise). They wouldn't order them as they have minimum order quantities around 2000 blanks..said they'd never sell them. The locksmiths guessed the hitch pins/locks are made in China and they don't care much for "standards".
You get two keys per hitch pin.
