Medeco Biaxial - Extensive Master Keying?
I got a new key for work, for a facility that is very large and extensively master keyed. It's old Medeco Biaxial, and has more cuts than I am used to. Here's a cropped picture of a couple of cuts that appear to me to have double-bevels:
I'm not intimately familiar with master keying practices in Biaxial, but my theory is that a large system might use more than one sidebar code, varying both the rotation of the pins in a given chamber and the position (fore/aft). This master key has cuts that will fit multiple sidebars. Can anyone confirm this?
The total number of low spots on the key is 8.
