keysinthecity Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 This is a 5g mortice key, part of a series. We occasionally see it. About one every couple of months. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kobblers Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 Union MH series. We've cut a few of these, too. Rick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysinthecity Posted December 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 Union MH series.. As in you've been able to modify an MH series key to work, or that you're saying the above key is part of the series? Previously I have been able to find an MH series key with enough meat on it to modify to work but on this occasion that hasn't worked. Hence wondering if there was a better blank to use.

kobblers Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 I've never encountered one of these that didn't have enough 'meat' on it. If it's only slightly out, I'd give it a try anyway as those sort of locks generally have a good bit of play in them. Rick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Rick. I don't know if it's only slightly out or not as the customer is foreign so it's a bit tricky to find out more info than just "it no work". Anyone know what from what manufacturer's series these keys originally come from? Thanks all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamparker Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 Vernier caliper would show the difference. Most important key cutting tool in my shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kobblers Posted December 22, 2015 Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 Nah, locksafe would have chastised us all for having the temerity to rely on years of experience and good judgement Rick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
