Keys that are so marked are done so for a reason. But, there is also supposed to be someone who is authorized to allow a copy to be made. Landlords will sometimes do it to protect future tenants without the need to change locks. You should be able to contact the appropriate person (building custodian, landlord, facility manager etc) and have them give you the necessary paper/form that authorizes you to have a copy made. Give the authorization to the locksmith or place that makes keys and they will be able to duplicate it. Good luck
