How keys work

Keys open special loot rooms; each key's description names a map grid square for its door.
Grid letters run A to J west to east; numbers run 1 to 9 north to south.
Keys show a value of 100 and sell for 100 at the FOB.
Without the key a door reads LOCKED; carrying it shows UNLOCK, then OPEN DOOR.
Most key unlocks award 300 XP; Gun Store weapons lockers award 375 XP.
Key names and door labels can differ, e.g. Counting Room Vault opens the casino Counting Room.
No use counter is shown on keys. Gun Store, Reactor DRC and Supreme Leader cards are confirmed consumed on use.
Air Base Access Card - Multi Use reportedly survives its first door; exact uses unknown.

Key durability is unconfirmed. A leaked, unreleased Keysmith trait mentions keys at max durability.
Items in Secure Slots survive a failed exfil; keys left in the backpack drop on death.
Door Breacher Charge: Ultra single-use consumable that opens a locked key door without its key.
Breacher reportedly cannot open weapon lockers, keycard doors or the Supreme Leader's Bunker.
Breacher sources: DMZ level 62 reward, 3D Printer recipe (1 Experimental Compounds, 5 Stock Rod, 3 Volatile Explosives), rotating Vendor stock.
An early glitch let breachers be reused from a Secure Slot; reportedly patched.
Key Cash is a confirmed Scout trait paying cash for each locked space opened with a key; amounts unpublished.
A Lockpicking trait appears only in leaks and is unconfirmed.
Lieutenants can drop a key to their own loot room, which usually holds a Lieutenant crate.
Level kits grant keys: Explosives Kit L16 and Trap Kit L42 (Gun Store), Recon Kit L19 (Police), Recon Kit L46 (Black Market).
Story missions reward keys and can be replayed to earn them again.
Critical Extraction gives Mirae Electrical Room; Silent Ledger gives Counting Room Vault; Shopping Hacks gives Coin Mining Den.
Iron Citadel gives the Supreme Leader card; Grid Assault gives Roze's Highrise Armory; Fallen Ember gives Reactor DRC Locker.
Three DRC Elite Weapons Lockers exist (Air Base, Reactor, Shopping); each needs its own Ultra key.
Each gun store has three basement weapons lockers; one Gun Store key opens one locker.
Hajin has five police stations, each with a basement armory; one key per station is disputed.
Keypads, bank power panels, camera-controlled gates and K9 core terminals do not take keys.
Reactor rooms need radiation protection; fire stations stock radiation gear.
A door locked from the inside hints at another entrance to that room.
Keys turn up in jackets, duffels, lockers, safes, Lieutenant bodies and other players.
Key databases disagree on totals (43 to 53) because several entries are unconfirmed or duplicated.
