Since we are on the topic....
We have an entry door handle just like yours but with a second lockset for a dead bolt that used a different key which was very inconvenient, especially after dark. I removed the assembly and took it to our local locksmith who re-key'd one lock to match the other so now one key works both locks. I did the same for the spare tire lock because it was different from all the other outdoor compartment locks.
We went from 5 keys to 3 keys. The 3rd key is the Ford key. All keys have their own shape for easy identification day or night. No more fumbling through keys and less bulk in my pocket.
