Yale 851 - key profile identification

Hi guys,

Does anyone own one of these or know what key blank profile is used, as I would like to impression a key but am struggling to find the correct profile.

What does the back side of the lock look like? It looks to me like you might have a restricted keyway. At least I'm not finding it in anything I have.

The shackle says made in England. It may not be a US keyway.

A locksmith has informed me that this lock would have been used with Yale special section keys for a suite. I'll update if I ever find the correct key.

Hi,
It looks much like what SKS catalogue calls YL NA/AB, where JMAs YA-15I should pass.
