Hollow key lock but no key problem...

[Monkey Boy]

Topic about covered it, but I'm looking for help with one of those hollow looking key locks.  I bought that U-Select-it candy machine the other day and it has one of those locks. I don't know if I should drill it or what? I don't want to have a problem replacing the thing once it is gone.... I think lock information would be a welcome thing to have here on this site. Replacement information and such things. Is there a vendor that we can go to that someone could recommend? I know the U-Select it isn't a pop machine but I'm in need of a lock for it and my La Crosse Pepsi machine, and my Belvend m-400 candy machine. Thanks

Cool could you look up the name of the dude on E-Bay for me? I think you can look back on your purchases?'> I wish I new how the key worked I'd try to pick lock. I hate to tear up the lock because once it's done you don't have anything to compare to....Thanks
