Drill the lock out with a 5/16" drill bit. Insert a large flat blade screwdriver and twist. You'll have the door open in a minute.

QUOTE Hi Bryan
It is the origonal lock. Sadly, I should have screwed the coin door on loosely and made sure the lock worked freely. It shouldn't be the lock but the catches at the ends of the locking bar, pressure in the right place should do the trick. When I get really frustrated I find the best thing to do is walk away, and pray. Then go back to it later. Thanks Tom, I aprreciate it. Its dricing me a little crazy really still have not gotten it open. |

Are you sure you have the correct key for the lock?
What number is on them (ie. PR501, KT812, etc.)? They should match.

Still working on it, I can check the key number against the lock this evening. I need to fill the machine up in any event for an upcoming party.

I'm curious, if I had a locksmith come in could they simply replace this lock?

Take a drill bit and drill it out!
Order a lock from one of the sponsors on this site (Fun-Tronics or Soda Jerk Works, etc.)
Install the lock yourself and save $$$

When the door is finally open remove the barrel
of the lock and with needle nose pliers, pull out all the little tumblers.
Re-install the lock and use a flat tip screwdriver to lock and
unlock the door. No more worry about lost broken or duplicate keys.

use a 5/16" drill bit. It only takes less than a minute to drill it out. After you drill the lock out use a large flat sided screw driver to turn the tumbler.
