Nice job in making the key, the "blocked" keyhole is, as was mentioned above, just a dust shutter that had been painted over. I will ask that you don't tell people how easy it was to make your own key, it's bad for my business (I'm a locksmith)
All the locks should be lubricated at least once a year. As was said lock-eze is a good product, but even some WD40 sprayed into the keyhole will significantly extend the life of a lock.
