If the same key fits doors remove a door lock and take to a decent locksmith. If your lucky may have a # on it which makes the job even easier and get a new key cut.

Dropping the barrels out is easy.
I just did the link to save some typing
Re-keys for a locksmith are a fairly easy job.
Repairs not so easy on the likes of the Holden barrels because of the cap but mostly just fiddly to avoid damage.
Still have a few bits here for those
