what type of pins for this lock?

I'm showing my uber ignorance here.
I ordered this lock off ebay because it was cheap. and as you can see it has easy repinning access on the top via little screw plugs with an allen key socket.
I have repinned it in diff ways, and is all good, but there are no security pins. I want to buy some security pins to add to the mix.

It is listed as : Euro Double Cylinder Vinco EUC60/F KA1 Keyed Alike SC *SINGLE*

i'm sure those numbers mean something to someone :P

so if i order a pin kit , which type will work, eg i saw kwikset kits on ebay, or is that only for a specific type of lock (I havent really heard of it in australia)?

any help is appreciated.

cheers.
Bik.

Doesn't look like you made a bad call actually. That looks nice.

I'm not familiar with this enough to help you unfortunately, but I will suggest you get a micrometer. I've found mine to come in handy time and time again with this hobby and if you could find the size of one of your pins you could easily find other pins that size by searching around on here.

Re: what type of pins for this lock?

Does it matter what make of pins I get?
Ie, kwikset, schlage, Weiser, dur?
Or are they all the same and it's just the .003 or .005 I have to worry about?

The diameter ( .015in) of the pins is very important ,much more important than the legnth (.003 or .005 increments )

yes, the larger common " house “ locks are almost all the same diameter.
