Vindic locks - no keys

Post by Yozza »

Ay up folks,

I've just realized I don't have the keys for the chrome vindic locks (N/S & O/S). Is it possible to get replacement barrels or keys?

What are more options?

Cheers,
Yozza

Hi,
Only just seen this post...
Dont know if you got this resolved?

I'm not sure what lock is on the vindic?
Is it locked and you cant get in?
If not open the door and remove the lock (this is straight forward) take the lock to a proper locksmiths NOT Timpsons etc.. and they will easily be able to key it.
If it is locked take the whole van with you!
The easiest option to Try 1st before either of the above is to look at the lock (it will be a wafer lock probably double sided similar to a lowe and fletcher) it my contain a few number/letters stamped onto the face.
write the code down take to a proper locksmith who if they are any good will have software (Silca/instacode etc..) and can search for your correct key via this code.

Hope all make sense?

Good Luck
