I could not find any model number for this lock made from sheet metal. Any idea? The false gates are of the 6K174 type.
Any idea on dating the three locks? From the workmanship my guess is that the 6K18 is the oldest followed by the 6K174.

Then I have in a standalone lock as an opening the hole for the stem and the the small space of the slot in the curtain. If this lock would be built into a safe do I have frontal access to this slot or just to the hole of the stem? (The slot for the key bit is at this moment not interesting anymore.) The slot in the curtain is just a tiny hole, but it might still make a big difference on how to bend the wire.
Attached a photo and marked the space in which I am interested.
