More Information
These keys are for the relatively high security Garrison lock. Originally a plastic security card with a 7 Digit key code was supplied with these locks. The code series range is 1111111 to 6666666. If you no longer have the key code, don't worry as many good key cutters will be able to duplicate this key from the original. Alternativy, if you have lost your key but still have the key card, then a good key cutter will be able to make a new key from the number on the card.

You can get a union pre-cut mortice key from different sources and even online. Prices are at around £5 on average but can also go upwards of £8. The cost really depends on the key-cutting shop that you choose. Big-named shops can be more pricey. If you want a less pricey key-cutter, look for a local shop.
