      I want to smooth the keyhole bracket part and when I set the smooth shading, I clearly see the triangular geometry around the keyhole.

      Here is the captures of what I see

      On my screenshots, I havent added explicit sharped edges on the smoothed capture.

      Did I’ve done anything wrong ? :/

        Try turning on Auto Smooth in the Object Data Properties (green ‘triangle’):

          Oh, well… problem solved… 🙂

          I activated it but brainlessely set it to 180 and  I just figured it out, by reading your answer, that if I set it higher than 60° I start to see seams.

          30 or 40° seems to be the good values, thanks you!
