To decode a Schlage key, carefully examine the cuts on the key and use a caliper or key gauge to measure the depth of each cut, matching these depths to Schlage's standardized key code chart (usually with depths ranging from 0 to 9). Record the sequence of numbers you determine—this sequence is the key code, which can be used to cut a duplicate key or identify the lock's pinning.
