Does 2001 E 150 Have a door key?

I just picked up a 2001 E 150 Econoline, and it came with a key and a fob. Turns out the key doesn't unlock the door. Did this model come with a seperate door key? Seems like it must have.... otherwise, why does it even have a key hole? I'm thinking of going to an auto locksmith to have one made, just in case the fob fails. (Bonus question: how much should I expect to spend to have a door key made without having a copy?)

Spray graphite or WD-40 into the keyhole to lubricate the mechanism. The problem is you get into the habit of always using the key fob so the mechanism locks up.

The door key and ignition key should be the same unless someone changed out the ignition at somepoint.

You could remove the door lock and have a locksmith rekey it to your ignition key.
