Old Lock on Projector Case-How Can I Open It?

Postby cablecat » 2 Mar 2016 0:06

Hi all,

I have an old projector case that is locked. I've included a photo of the lock in hopes of someone knowing how to pick it open. I'd really appreciate any information regarding this kind of lock and/or advice on how to open it. Thank you very much for your help.

Your best bet would be to bring the case to a locksmith or to an antique shop. They may have a key that works.

Good luck :)

It doesn't even have to cost a lot, most of my old luggage keys are $8.50,
less to just unlock your case
