Locked Treasure chests can be opened using one of the three keys: Thief's Key, Magic Key, and the Ultimate Key.

Keep in mind that one key cannot unlock all chests. For instance, if a locked chest cannot be opened even if you already have the Thief's Key, then it is likely that you need a different key to open it.
