ISEO oval cylinder Question

Postby taylorgdl » 29 Dec 2005 17:35

I've got some ISEO oval cylinders from ebay, with keys etc, but not ID.
They are single cylinder, (as in, can only open from one side) brass casing dimple key type. Have taken one apart and taken pictures, (to follow, once I find my card reader). Anti-drill pins x 2, spools galore, and more pins than you can shake a rather hairy stick at.

Your thoughts on picking etc ?

Have also got a load of Mul-t-locks, one of which I've taken apart for pics and investigation, but you don't get to see those. :wink:

the souber pickset for the Mult-T-Lock...

would I be right in saying it would pick standard dimple locks?

I can pick my AGB dimple lock with 5/7 spool pins, with matador rakes but it's not exactly straight-forward and you need to really concentrate on getting the tension right.

with 11 pins I would guess the Souber set to be the best - if it works of course.

If no other door or letterbox and you had to drill, do they drill the same as a standard cylinder ?

I'd have to suggest you make a bumpkey for it. I do that before I do anything else when I buy a new range of cylinder locks.

The R11 in question has 8 top pins and 3 side pins, the souber pick set struggles on it as does the keyprint set, bump keys are hit and miss on it, bloody good lock.

Foil impressioning may be the way to go.

keyway has nasty sharp wards that tend to chew up the foil, though it does impression traditionaly
