Need your help!
I have had some questions and decided its best to just make one thread for them all. Any feedback would be appreciated so thank you in advance.
1: I have 2 American 700 series padlocks. One has the screw that holds the shackle in place exposed meaning I can easily take shackle off and the other does not. Instead it looks like its a rivet. So question is, what is that thing? Is it a cover that I can pry open?
2. Master Wafer Padlock Single Sided - Cant get any of the wafers to bind, tried high and low tension, tried tension from all angles etc and still nothing.
3. I recently replaced a POS mortise cylinder with a nice strong Medeco but against an Adam Rite Bypass tool they are the same. Does any one have any idea how to close/seal up that little opening in the back of a mortise? The Medeco did come with a plate cover but it didnt cover it completely.
4. I want to make my own tubular lock pick from a bunch of keys I have. I noticed that some of the keys have that little tension bit only on top of the key, only on the inside and some have both. Can anyone please bring some light to this dark area in my knowledge book?
Thank you very much, any ideas, feedback, thought, opinions would be greatly appreciated!!!
