Guest Phill Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Ruko flex core Phone ASSA on 0208 6885191 they'll let you know the dealers contact details from the number stamped on the key. Then its up to that dealer whether they supply them to you or not Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobblerjoe Posted June 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 thanks for that icould get them from ireland but dont know if it is illegal to cut them under patent. surly if i use a ruko blank then this should not break patant as somewhere the supplyer has paid license. any info would be good thanks cobblerjoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 would a letter of authorisation from the customer along with a copy of passport/driving licence noy cover that for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phill Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Be very very careful This can get very complicated, but the long and short of the matter is these boy's take this very seriously and if you duplicate a patented key, you are braking the law. Even if you manage to purchase one of there blanks. If you copy a customers key I.E cut a blank, you can be prosecuted. For example we are a Chubb M3 dealer (Patented) all the blanks used by M3 dealers are the same, if a customer comes in with a chubb M3 key with another M3 dealers number on it I'm unable to copy the key, no matter how much authorisation the customer gives me.
