Re: KEE-BLOK
Interesting idea. Is this a currently produced item?
Too bad it can be bypassed (along with the knob) with a large hammer.

Plug is stamped "MMC22"
Interesting thing is where you would use it.

Thank you, Joe.
Looks to use the old Chicago keys. Easy enough to pick, but can't really impression them. At least not any way that I know. Had to make a key for a floor cleaning machine at work yesterday, and had to disassemble the lock to figure out what was what in order to make the key. Those 11 wafers are directly touching each other (as with the lock yesterday). Very close quarters.

Re: KEE-BLOK
Yeah, I'm thinking using a Soda can template.
cut by eye with scissors.
Don't want to waste a bunch of blanks.
At least the plug is out where I can see whats going on.

Re: KEE-BLOK
I had to order 5 new cylinders keyed alike from the manufacture last year for a prop management company. They lost a set and they wanted a key made. So I just ordered them 5 alike cylinders to make things simple for them.

Kee-Blok has bee around for decades to temporary lockout a tenant, secure a door that has lost keys until tit can be rekeyed. Uses standard Chicago K4 key blank. Easiest way to fit a key is find a bunch of cut Chicago keys, find the ones that go in easy and use the one that is closest to fitting then file down the protruding wafers. If you use a key that isn't real close there will not be much left locking it after it is filed. Or you can get a new un coded wafer unit tap out the old one insert the new one, put in the new key and file down the wafers to fit. We use to use a hole saw it's faster then finish it with a file.

Re: KEE-BLOK
I took apart the lock, and put a tension wrench into the keyway, lifting all the wafers as high as the interior parts would go, then traced the pattern above the shear line onto paper. Flipped this pattern over and transferred to a key blank (for the opposite side of the key), then did the same for the bottom of the keyway/top of the blank. Filed the cuts, and done.

This is the kind of things I would never, EVER, think of. And when someone does it, I feel like an idiot for not having thought of it
Thanks the explanation!
Go ahead, keep plugging away, picking on me! You will end up on bypass or with rigor mortise.

Re: KEE-BLOK
Very cool never seen this before ...large hammer Gordon ! I thought all these type locking nobs could be very quickly opened with very little damage via the bolt
a well placed angled drilled hole in frame and a wire should do the trick ?? am I wrong
