Bolt size and measurements need to be considered when shopping for replacement locks.
A Horizontal bolt is a must on this .. so check before buying

You may want to fit a cam lock instead that uses a key ...lots of options

The Cole is a 2-wheel lock. The locker locks are much smaller and I doubt they will fit.

The best method is to decode the code if someone is still willing to do it. Second best is manipulation. It is a really easy lock.
