Hi Guys, anyone have experience with old RV locks? I have this one made by Bergman and it has a code but none of my sources have it listed. A122 is on the face of the lock and a Bergman K1054B/IN24 key blank fits but neither HPC Code Source or Codes Express Online or my Reed Code books have it listed. Any ideas?

Impression or sight read? 5 cuts, 4 depths I believe.
Have you tried removing the plug via the disc retainer? A lot of Bargman's are assembled this way.

This one is not removable. The tail piece is pressed in. I saw no numbers on the wafers so impression is my next step when I have time tonight. I was just very surprised that the code stamped on the face means nothing...

Could have been rekeyed at some point.

I do not think so. When searching for the code, nothing comes up for this brand. CodeSource lists Bargman but has no data. Codes Express does not come up with Bargman at all. My Reed Code Books do not show this either. Any of the searches show key blanks that do not fit this lock. Here is the back end of the lock and I see no way to remove the cylinder.

Anything under Jayco? Winnebago? Starcraft?

I impressioned and ended up with 00232.
Thanks for the help. I just am very surprised none of the databases had this! This is one of the reasons I have the old Reed books, software and an online subscription. But three strikes is a first for me.

Well at least it was an easy one. Good job.
