I have some more slot machine locks, they need keys from a customer.
Jennings & Co Yale locks. A Yale pin tumbler, I have the pinning kit, depths, it's been the same for decades. It's more difficult to separate the back from the front but it can be done.
Ace locks, I have the pinning kit, with keys. Easy peasy
Mills Bell locks, ever since I took two apart, it's been a breeze. Easy peasy.


Jennings & Company Yale, code starts out: ODJ


Mills, Bell locks. The codes are not standard.


Jennings Club Chief Ace,

I have these locks finished, all keyed up.



I have just a few more to go, overall these were not all that bad to rekey.
Having Mills locks that were not hacked on makes the job easier. Actually, I can't do anything with the hacked Mills locks.
I have the pinning kits for the Yale locks, the only thing they slowed me down was having to shim the locks to take the the locks apart.
The ace locks were easy, I have a pinning kit.

What do you charge for one of your mills lock with a working mills key ?

All of these locks were sent to me to be keyed up for a customer. The rekey is $15.00 each, since it's a bulk lot, the keys are $3.00 each approximately.

I don't mind rekeying these locks, getting the job done correct is what really matters.

Well then I guess you dont sell mills locks with working mills keys.

I am a locksmith, master safe and vault technician. I rekey locks for customers. I don't bugger up the locks, I actually disassembly them and rekey them correctly.

I have several more slot machine locks that need keys made. One is a DUO slot machine lock that needs a first fit key.



Pace slot machine lock.
