British 4 Lever Deadlock barrel key size?

Postby jefferson81 » 3 Aug 2011 21:27

Hello, I am wondering what size barrel key typically fits a british 4 lever deadlock to a small cabinet or locker box produced around 1909-1911? Is it a 2 inch key? Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

is it a pipe key (one with a hole in the middle) or a standard type "chubb" key??

Best bet is pop off down to timpsons, get them to "gauge" it up and go from there..they may even sell you some blanks at uber top prices but OK to make a key from scratch

Its a 'pipe' key, just wondering if there was a standard length in inches that was typically used?
