You can get key ML 173 from cubiclekeys.com? Just one place, may be others cheaper?

The lock itself is a Chicago Lock product. The hole you see off to the side is for the retainer to remove the plug. But you have to have a key or pick the lock to the correct position to allow access thru that hole to the retainer.

As Stratmando says you can order a key on line probably or any local lock shop should be able to cut one for you.

Dont lose or damage any parts since Mosler is long gone out of business.
