Auto Theft - Signal System Key?

Post by gary80005 » Tue Jun 18, 2019 2:29 pm

Does anyone know if the keys fit all units? I have a really nice lock with no key. I took it to a locksmith and they kept it for 2 weeks and said they couldn't pick the lock or make a key. They were Millinials. Anyone with wisdom know where I can get a key or have one made?

Gary,
I have two. The first came with a key, the second didn't. The key to the first doesn't fit the second lock.
I took it to an old fashion locksmith on Coronado Island (San Diego) and he picked the lock and made me a key. Took him a few days but he did it.
Maybe see if you can find an old fashion locksmith?
Good luck.
