| use = Unlock locked doors or locked blocks

'''Small Keys''' are [[Dungeon]] items featured in every [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'']] game to date. They are used to open locked doors or locked blocks, as seen in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]''. These locked doors and blocks are only found in dungeons. They can usually be obtained by solving a puzzle or defeating a whole bunch of enemies, which makes a small [[Treasure Chest]] appear, and usually contains a Small Key. They do not open the door to boss rooms. For said doors, Link needs the [[Boss Key]] or [[Big Key]].

In every game except for ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', the only place to acquire a Key is in a dungeon. However, in ''The Legend of Zelda'', some [[Item Shop]]s that are found around [[Hyrule]] sell Keys for 100 [[Rupee]]s a piece. Also, ''The Legend of Zelda'' is the only game in the series where a Key found inside a dungeon can be taken out and used in another dungeon. This feature is not present in any other game, as in them a Key can only be used in the dungeon it is found in.
