Old Schlage and new WB padlocks

Might as well do a combination thread!
First up are 3 old Schlage padlocks I recently got off ebay. The newer one was unassembled NOS. The 2 with the figure 8 cylinder are model 910 and the other is model 912. They all take a standard Schlage KIK cylinder but you must have the right tailpiece. The 910 comes apart very easily with a screw under the shackle. The 912 is a pain in the butt to take apart. The rectangular piece you see on the outside is a stamped metal retainer that pretty much has to be punched out from under the shackle. I have two more 910 padlock bodies with new retainers, one of the local locksmiths is going to try and find me replacement shackles so I can get them put together.

Next we have a brand new WB padlock I purchased at a local marine/industrial supply. It was the only one they had, and it only came with one key.
Based on the wicked keyway, it is probably a lockout lock. Picked open pretty easily.

I added another restricted keyway WB to the collection today, courtesy of eBay.

Re: Old Schlage and new WB padlocks

What type of key blank does that unusual keyway WB padlock have (The one with 3487 stamped on the rear)? I just acquired one of those and I can get an m21 to fit into it but I can't impression it using that. I'm dying to make a key for this thing. Thanks.

It's a restricted keyway.

Re: Old Schlage and new WB padlocks

I contacted the MFR, the keyway is an WR and it is restricted. I tried to impression it using different methods and was un successful. I ended up picking and holding it open at the top of the keyway with a short tension wrench made from wiper blade steel while taking Nashua 324-a hvac tape (folding it over a few times really small) and shoving it in the keyway then pushing it up to the pins with a peterson deep hook to get a foil impression. I used a M21 blank, it has only 2 cuts (#2 and #4 both same depth) the key I made works well....
