Cash box keys

[wellsy9]

Hi can anyone help please. I need to order cash box keys that come pre cut. It is for a prison shop so the customer can't bring the original key in to source the blanks for security purposes. They have the numbers: 034, 197 and 056 on them. Any help would be appreciated.

There are a few series that these codes may belong to.

Are you able to obtain a photo of a sample key?

 

Is the key double sided or single sided?

 

If it's single sided, then it's most probably in the '92' series (L&F).

 

Regards

Mike

Unable to get a photo of the keys. They are double sided.

Sound like some of the chinese rubbish we see every day.

 

Doubt if you will get them cut to code as there are loads of differing variants out there.

 

Just for cash tins i now have the following blanks HLX1(hd),sso2, cax1r, mf1r, np1r, frt8 (all silca)

Most likely part of the Cash Box series on CAX** blanks.

 

But without seing a sample or photo i can't be 100% sure.

 

Regards

Thanks for your help guys. I'll try an find out a bit more its hard though when the customer can't bring the keys to me as they can't take the copies off the rings as they are welded closed so no keys can be taken off and they are not allowed to take keys out of the prison.

If they cant bring you the keys they will need to bring you the box or give them a blank key for any series that match and see which ones will fit in the lock?

is a new cam lock with extra keys not an option?

Can't they send them internally to the Timpson trainees? (not joking, I know timpson use ex-offenders but don't know if they pre-train them)

pre trained on everything except key cutting as far as im aware.

this customer sounds dodgy to me, like he has had a good look at the keys but wasnt authorised to have them himself. probably on day release or something
