Help request for some Mosler locks
Posted: Sat May 31, 2014 2:48 pm
As some of you may know, I recently purchased an old bank to turn into a brewery. If you guys need any proof before helping me with these locks, just let me know what you want to see.
Being a picker, I'm of course fascinated by all of the safes, doors, safety deposit boxes, and all manner of other goodies in here to play with. The vault has a sort of back room in it that's split off with a gate:
There's no key for the lock. There's an identical gate in the front that someone took apart--the lock turns with any key. Here are some close-ups.
There are no visible pins, so my guess is a warded lock. But would a bank have locks so insecure?
Looking at the keys for the safety deposit boxes, they certainly look like wards:
Thanks for any advice!
