Important! Source for MLV profile V7 cut keys discovered!

[adi_picker]

G'day Guys,

I'm a little excited this morning, after searching on and off for months, I have finally come across a locksmith that is willing and able to supply V7 'MLV' profile keys. They aren't cheap, running around AUD $40, but he has a lot of old stock. Also note, I am yet to receive my first order, so it may or may not come off, most likely depending on how the locksmith feels, as hes supplying them cut, but without a lock on a restricted system.

I do know that a lot of you guys have MLV locks, and others, so I wanted to put it out there and get expressions of interest for keys that I will mail to you. As I mentioned above, exact price will be confirmed after my first order is completed, but it will cost you the buy price plus AUD $10 for shipping worldwide. Please only solid orders, leave them below, perhaps a bulk buy to be split to everyone. If you have any other profiles in V7 you would like, please also leave that in your message, and I will see what I can do, but as a lot of profiles were restricted to the Lockwood factory, no promises.

Wish me luck, and that the locksmith comes good

Locksmith came through!



As you can see from the above, the heads are no longer coined, another measure to phase out the system by Lockwood, along with jacking up the wholesale price of the blanks. Final price was $38 AUD ea. I did confirm with the locksmith that they are genuine Lockwood blanks, nickel silver, and cut on an original V7 machine, which means that the cuts on either side of the V are slightly angled towards the pins. I can see this looking at my keys as well. He also confirmed that he would be happy if I were to place a large order to ship to collectors. For simplicity, all the keys will be keyed alike, you will get the bitting you see above on as many keys as you order.

I'm happy to do a bulk buy for anyone that is interested. I will be taking orders for the next 3 weeks, until the 12th of April, and although I said reply here above, I will have to get you to send me a PM. Price is $38 AUD per key, plus shipping worldwide of $15 AUD, which gets you up to 500grams. Although steep, all prices are my cost, I'm not making a thing. This may be your first and last chance to obtain a key for your V7, as Lockwood are no longer producing blanks, or keying any new V7 systems as of the middle of June this year. After this, all keys will be NOS, and it will be a matter of searching them out.

Hey mate,

I know the date has passed by, but am really hoping you may have, or can still get your hands on any more V7 blank keys.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
