I have the lock but no key. can get a blank but how do i get it cut with no key as a pattern?
Is it possible to take it apart and work out the crests from the inserts?
If not what are the options?

Sierra Madre in California can take it apart and make a key for it. There might be someone in the Uk but I couldn't find anyone. Sierra madre can re build the lock with the original coade of your car if you want tobe super pedantic on the detail.

If you have the key number from the Kardex, Zims in Texas can cut one from that number.

Hi.
The chassis number for my car is 215539. Can you get the kardex from that. Latest news is the blank arrived from Roger Bray and I am taking the lock to the locksmiths tonight. I will post the outcome when I know what he can do

My local lockmaster took one look and scratched his head as he had not seen such an old lock. Did not want to proceed so its off to PRS with the lock and blank key
