tommy Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Hi Guys, Two for the price of one today, I cannot find these in any of my books (sks, birch, silca, rst or davenports) any ideas, also had a Arrone cylinder key in yesterday, but have no pics, was quite complicated and newly fitted to a local supermarket so they would like 26 copies if i can get them.

Auto Key Wizard Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Not sure that the FAB section you have there is listed in the DB Catalogue The Tigris is imaged below Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommy Posted July 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Thanks for the Arrone pics but it was different and more complicated than those. The left one can be cut from universal and the right one is the same as the Schlage if i have spelt it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommy Posted July 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 I'm not going to turn a customer away just because the key is not in my book and I know of one that will work fine, would you? same with the mortice blanks, that is what they are for!

Auto Key Wizard Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 ...or me, I hate um, duplicate it using the correct profile when available, or not at all you'd turn the work away? No way Rick, I'd cut onto the correct profile. Not forgetting I'm a professional key cutter. Don't get me wrong....I do stock universal profiles to be used as a last resort.

kobblers Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 ah, righto, it's just that some keys (crappy chinese locks spring to mind ) don't have profiles available so a ulo is all you can use at times. rick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy Posted July 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 Not only that, but there is no one more gratefull than a customer who has been told no chance elsewhere when after a key for their mobility scooter and they come to you and you take the time to make a nissan key fit. Every week i improvise to get motorbikes and padlocks with working spare keys where no body else can be bothered to try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auto Key Wizard Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 when after a key for their mobility scooter and they come to you and you take the time to make a Nissan key fit. Silca ALP4 is good for these scooters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kobblers Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 yup, we use the alp keys too sometimes the renz but it's rare. rick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kobblers Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 did you manage to find those fab keys tommy? we've just had some in but it's difficult to compare the profiles from the book and if you've managed to get them then maybe you could tell us the code to save us ordering the wrong ones rick.

tommy Posted July 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Hi I was hoping my appeal for up to date books might have worked. As it did not, I printed the above pictures off, and am now waiting for the customer to bring the key back. I will post when I know which it is. Cheers Tommy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kobblers Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 check the FB7R out tommy, that's the one we think it's going to be. as for the catalogues you're better off ringing dav burg or silca to see if they're willing to send you some although the last i heard, dav burg books were like rocking horse crap. rick.

Michael Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I'm also after a Tigris key. It is marked as "Tigris Premier" and Patent protected. No numbers though. Where could I trace these for a customer please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I've got a number from DB of a company up in Newcastle upon Tyne called Access2.They seem to deal with these Tigris Premier suite systems. I have the number if anyone needs it, or I could post it up if no one has any objections? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kobblers Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 i can't see anyone here objecting although it may be worth ringing access2 and asking if they mind then there's no comeback against the forum as a whole. can you get a pic of that premier key fella? rick.

Michael Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 I'll try when customer comes back. This is not the company I phoned but these are the keys.. http://www.afs-securitysystems.com/Tigris.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
