| '''Keys''' are items found in the [[dungeon]]s of every [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|Zelda game]]. They are necessary for advancing through locked doors. Keys can be obtained through a variety of different puzzles. For example, sometimes you may need to defeat all the enemies in a room. Other times you may need to break a hole in the wall with your bombs. In some situations you need to do what you least expect, and that way it will be easier to advance to victory. Once a key is used, it disappears.

| There are roughly four different keys:
| | {{Term/Store|Key|Keys|Series, LA, LADX}} may refer to any of the following: |
| * Small Keys are the most common keys.
| |
| * Boss Keys are big keys that grant access to the dungeon's boss.
| |
| * Dungeon Keys only appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'' and were needed to enter their respective dungeons.
| |
| * ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'' featured three keys needed to open doors spread across the islands of the [[Great Sea]].

| The '''Small Key''' is featured in many Zelda games. It can be found in small chests and by killing enemies, such as [[Rat]]s In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', but could actually be bought in ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]''. A Small Key can be used to open locked doors that have chains around them. In every Zelda game, except ''The Legend of Zelda'', they can only be used in the dungeon where they're found.

| The '''Boss Key''' is one of the three standard dungeon items, the other two being the [[Compass]] and the [[Dungeon Map]]. Alternatively, it is also called '''Big Key'''.<ref>{{cite|You got the Big Key! This is the master key of the dungeon. It can open many locks that small keys cannot.|N/A|A Link to the Past}}).</ref> It is known as the '''Nightmare Key'''<ref>{{cite|Eh? It's locked! You can open the door with the Nightmare Key.|N/A|Link's Awakening}}.</ref> in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]''. It is generally used to open the big door leading to the boss' chamber. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', the Boss Keys also are necessary to open the treasure chests containing a dungeon's special item. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', the Boss Key from the [[Goron Mines]] had to be put together by obtaining the three '''Key Shards''' from the [[Goron]] Elders. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'', Link must carry the Big Key in his hands rather than inventory. In certain instances in ''Spirit Tracks'', the key is electrified and Link must have his [[Phantom]] partner carry it for him.
