Title: No key
Post by: on October 02, 2002, 02:43:52 pm
I didn't find any keys with my ideal model 55B. Is there any place where I mind find one to fit? Could a locksmith make one to fit? I believe it is an ace type lock. One that takes a key that is round like the old deepfreeze keys? Again, thanks for the help!  Clueless1

If by "you have no keys" you mean that your side door lock
(for loading the soda's) has no key /core assy. in it (that is its just an empty hole) then any of the suppliers listed here is the parts supplier's section can fix you up with a whole new lock/plug & key set, I assume you didn't because you asked if was an "Ace" style circular key, it's not, its a straight, single bit pin tumbler type, you put in the key, pull out the lock assy.
plug/core, then insert the allen door handle and unscrew the
bolt that holds the door closed. here take a look. If you need a key for the coin box just write down the No.'s you see on the face of the locks core and give the suppier's a call they should be able to find of make the right one based on that numbers too. PS look in the tank area for the door "wrench" too looks like a one ended overgrown "Z" shaped allen key. you'll need it to unscrew the loading (side) door. have Fun :;):
