RichL Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Customer has lost their keys. Dynamic have sugested drilling the lock out, and they can supply a new lock with 2 keys. Not done this before and Id expect the lock to be at least as hard as the drill bits. Anyone suggest the correct drill bit size, and how long its likely to take to do? Originally said by Charles Babbage On two occasions I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When drilling them type of locks i find it best to start small and work your way up in size. Usually no need to drill right through, the pins start failing before then and the lock can then be turned manually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixwheeledbeast Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Last time I did one of these I used a bit the same size as the centre circle of the lock (~7mm). Then once most of the way through all the brass pins fail out and it will open with a large flat screwdriver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
