Need help identifying a best keyway

Need help identifying a best keyway

Postby marinaraSauce » 14 Apr 2013 14:13

Hi all,

I'm new to LP101 so bear with me. I have a BEST key that I need help identifying the keyway for.

I have strong reason to believe it is a type L keyway. Due to the stamp near the shoulder and the following diagram: http://www.jmcsecurity.net/pdf/BestKwy.pdf

I would really appreciate any more information.

Thanks,

marinaraSauce

I would agree that it looks like an "L". Can you take a picture of the actual keyway, not just the key?
