Locksmith Blackheath said much of the process becomes second nature once you've completed a few jobs mortise lock like this. Remember to only file away a 'levers width' of metal away from the blank. If you file more, then chances are the key won’t work.

Once the key works from one side, repeat from the other, first making sure that the one lever in the case hasn't moved up the pillar. Remember that you are aiming for symmetry, so if the first cut works, that's what you should be aiming to remove from the opposite side.

Once the key works from both sides, add the second lever, and repeat the process, filing a little at a time. If this is carried out correctly, you should have a key which works smoothly from both sides of the lock.

Once you've got one good mortice lock key you have a better idea of what it should look like, so it's a good idea to make another. Don't forget to finish the keys off, by radiusing the cuts and giving it a good buffing.
I know what you mean about the satisfaction a job like door lock repair holds. I call it the proper locksmith job if you get anything like this.
 
Recently I was doing a fitting job and the neighbour came out and said when you are finished can you come and have a look at a furniture lock that I have lost the keys for.
 
It was a sort of wardrobe that she used to keep her liquor in so and needed it to be locked as her family drank her out of house and home especially as Christmas was coming up, and she wanted it kept under lock and key.
 
I took the lock out to the locksmith Blackheath door lock repair van where I could open it up and get to work on making a key. It used a pipe key and the first attempt was nearly there but decided to make a better second one and after 25 mins or so of getting the correct height to throw the bolt then get the correct height for the two levers to lift, I was more than happy with what I had and so could then easily make a copy.
I used a combination of hand file and the key cutting machine which was just quicker to take of the big unwanted bits. Really pleased with myself and with a perfectly working and serviced lock with two new keys and having refitted the lock back in place, on handing her the silver pipe keys she said oh my other ones were brass but it doesn't matter, some people!

She was in fact very happy and so was I as like you say they are very pleasing jobs to do. I have done a couple of these, although I must say not as neat as Simons. The only issue I have with these type of jobs is that customers don't want to pay the price of the labour involved.

Had several call regarding furniture locks etc and when I say it will be an hours labour they back off. But we at the locksmith Blackheath shop do agree it brings a great deal of satisfaction to get the cabinet locks working with a key you made by hand.
