three lever antique cabinet lock key make

[@peterzenner2020]

I always enjoy watching the videos of lever locks--and the "squaring of the key" to fit before anything else can get started.

Hi Jason. Thanks for taking the time to do this video. Yet again I am learning stuff. Because you always mention other factors to think about not just the key cutting. Thanks again Jason for edumicating us.

Always a joy to watch the master in action!

So good to see a Master at Work... I can set and watch one work all day #LOCKFORCE

[@cardiffpicker1]

Not a particularly difficult one ,but for a septic who doesn't deal with lever locks on a regular basis it was a good job

[@gkeyman565]

I know safeties third but what's first and second?

[@donnasides6884]

So I have a locked cabinet that has the same type of key. It looks like a skelton key but has a hole at the end. The key broke while trying to unlock it and I need to find a replacement. I had a locksmith come in and he didn't't have the right size. If I can't find a key that fits, we will have to break the glass to gain access. Open to any suggestions. I have a picture of the lock as it was also on the lower part of the cabinet. Looks similar to the one you were showing. should I find another locksmith? Can I order these keys somewhere?

I know it’s not particularly relevant, but this seems like the place to seek information so here goes nothing. I acquired a roll top desk and replaced the key. It didn’t work, I thought the lock was jammed. I unscrewed it. It works fine when it’s out of the desk, but the key refuses to turn when the lock is installed- what could be the problem?

[@pouncerminned863]

try not to over tighten the screws holding in the lock

[@BrightDecision]

@@pouncerminned863 that seems to have been the issue, thanks a bunch. I don’t understand mechanically why it needs less tension like that.

[@pouncerminned863]

@@BrightDecision i think due to tolerances? i am not sure myself exactly

[@BrightDecision]

@@pouncerminned863 I see, so basically the whole mechanism needs enough Y-axis wiggle room to function. I noticed that compressing it against the desk or via the screws along the Y-axis prevents function. Thanks so much for your input, have a great day.

How much for a lock key ? My lock looks pretty much the same.

I need to stop watching and start doing. I bought the parts to convert one of my old cutters into a slotter about 6 months ago, but I have not done the conversation yet.
