Abloy 341 . . . Lost Key

[globeshifter]

I have had this lock for years sitting around the house looking impressive and all that. Recently I decided to use it to lock a storage unit. Not more than a couple of weeks go by and *poof* the only key I had for it comes up missing. I hate to have to ruin the magnificent work of art, is there any other way? Any ideas, advise or direction would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance . . .

Nope sorry. Your only option would be too cut it off.

Calling a locksmith and they would come out and have to do the same thing, most likely for more than a new one would cost you.

You may find a better deal on one from ebay.

Those locks are pretty much known to be pick proof by any normal means or any normal pick sets.. Its certainly not something that will open with a hairpin and some luck. Some folks out there have special decoder tools, but I'm talking CIA type of tools that professionals use. As joe said, its time for a new lock.
