new key boards

[k4mrc]

i'm struggling to find enough spaces on my key boards for the track and dimple keys - already have 4!

any solution to this from a manufacturer? I have the ones from HD but added blank ones as they are increased.

Make your own boards and stock what you actually need, not what the manufacturer wants you to stock.

Certainly seems to be moving in that direction.

We are just catching up with Europe.

They have had mostly dimple locks for many years.

There is a misconception that they are more secure than 'traditional' cylinders.

This is why it’s better to make your own. You can swap out old stock and bring in new stuff when needed. Also, due to local locksmiths and different housing being built near you, you may have something locally that’s not common elsewhere

I use these ( https://www.davenport-burgess.com/products/WD7-WALL-DISPENSER-7-BOARD/P131885 ) get 7ft of storage per 4ft of wall. i also increased the board hook numbers to 132 hooks per board.
