All keys in the Bel Air area
Bel Air is the starting area in Dead Island 2 where you begin your journey. There are many locked doors and vaults here. Some need to be opened in the story, while others – to get valuable items, money and various loot. Below we have described where most of the keys can be found in this region.
Where to find the keys to Curtis’ house, garage and safe

Curtis’ house is located near the original mansion, where you will meet the survivors. As you walk past, you hear a man’s voice from the intercom. If you answer, you will receive an additional task “Killer Party”.

How to get the keys to Curtis’ house
To do this, it is enough to kill the infected in the courtyard and power the house with a jerry can of water. If Curtis lets you in through the front door, make sure you get rid of the group of ghosts as well. After you go downstairs, the owner of the house will give you the keys to all the rooms.
Where do you find the keys to Curtis’s garage
Oddly enough, the keys to the garage are in the garage itself. You can see them on the workbench through the bars.

To enter, go left around the building and press the button between the gates. The left door will open and you just need to kill a few zombies and pick up the key.

Inside you’ll find supplies, a rake, fuel and water canisters, and a weapon skill. “Power”.

Where do you find the key to Curtis’ safe
This key can be obtained after progressing through the story and getting to know the screamers. As of this writing, it has not been possible to find the key to Curtis’ safe.
Once you meet your first screamer, return to the mansion and look around the courtyard. There are several drying cabinets on the right side of the building. Open one of them to make monsters appear. Kill them and examine the bodies. Next to one of the corpses is the key to the safe.
How to find the key card of the “Zagon”

You will get to this mansion following the main plot. You need a key card not to enter, but to leave the penthouse. Entering the mansion is very easy, just find the glass roof on the porch and break it.

Go down and find the streamer. There will be a key card on the table.

Where to find the keys to the goat pen
To get this key, you must complete the additional task “Earthly Goods” (Creature Comforts). Until this moment, the key in the mansion simply does not appear.

When you have fulfilled the condition, go back and climb to the balcony above the pool. Here you will see a window that you can break and enter the room.
Also break the glass railing to run and jump to the window. Examine inside the left cupboard next to the bed. After completing the above task, the master key will appear here.

You can also go to the floor above and jump down to the balcony with two lounge chairs.

When the glass breaks, the alarm goes off. Turn it off as soon as possible. In the same room you will find the skill “Weight”an audio recording and some supplies.
Where to find the key to Brock’s vault in the Corral
In the streamer room to the left of the bed you will find a safe. To open it, you need another key. But getting it is not as easy as it might seem at first glance.

Here is the procedure to follow to get the key:
- Complete the “Room Service for Major Booker” quest at the Halperin Hotel.
- Return to the “Zagon” and follow the gym.
- Kill a strong monster here, which will drop the key to Brock’s safe.

The vault contains a random rare weapon.
All keys in the area “Hotel “Galperin””
The Halperin Hotel is the second major region you enter in the story. When you arrive at the reception you will see closed cells. The keys are scattered around the hotel.

Cell key #9
As soon as you get to the hotel, the task will be updated and you will have to kill a huge crowd of enemies. According to the plot, you cannot avoid it, so you have to fight to the last monster. When you’re done, examine the table in the center of the room. Here is the key.

Cell key #33
Keep following the story until the major contacts you. When you reach the second floor, find a note between the two elevators and press the call button. This lift will not take you to the third floor, but you can pick up the key.

Cell key #14
From the previous place where you called the elevator and found the key, follow the passage on the right and overcome the blockage. Here you will find a chemical bomb and you can extinguish the fire at the entrance of room 208.

Enter this room and examine the bed on the left. More to the left on the floor are the keys.

Cell key #49
As you climb to the third floor, you will soon come across a locked door. On the left above the bed there is a ventilation grille – climb into it. The quest marker tells you to go right, but we recommend going in the opposite direction. Here you will find the keys.

Cell key #53
Keep following the marker until you reach room 307. Immediately turn to the left and open the bathroom door. There will be a bunch of keys in front of the bathroom.
Where to find the universal keys of major
This bunch of keys is in the same room where you could pick up the key of locker #53. Just walk up to the body in the middle of the room and look a little to the left.

How to find the key to the guard’s safe “Galperin”.
You will find this safe in a small gatehouse opposite the hotel. The door of the building is locked with a magnetic key, but you can access the safe through the window.

To get the key, you must first complete the “Room Service for Major Booker” story mission. If you’ve already done this, go back to the gatehouse and inspect the area. You need to go to the underground parking lot, where a unique enemy will appear – the same infected guard, after defeating which you can get the key.
It is worth noting that in addition to him there will also be a boss named Crusher. It is not necessary to kill him, but it will be quite difficult to deal with the guard in his presence. The vault contains a random rare weapon.

We will update this guide soon.
