Recently moved to a gym that uses padlocks for locking your stuff, they sell them too for an inflated price of 3.5$, jokingly I tried my key on a friend’s lock, and one more random one, of course it didn’t work and it made me curious.
My question is how do factories make all keys/locks different even at these cheap mass produced kinds that are probably sold for 0.5-2$, how is it worth for a factory to “use different patterns” at that price, or how do they do it?

I had a buddy in college who walked out to the student parking lot, unlock and get in a red Honda, put the key in and drove off. He almost made it out of the lot before he noticed it was definitely not his car.
