thanks I read that, but you see how this particular key is confusing me?

look at it closely, how many pins are in the lock?

It looks like 2 or 3 to me.

That key fits a wafer lock of some sort as most small keys. Because it is a wafer lock, I wouldn't recommend bumping it unless you are doing it 3 times or less.

1. That is a pin tumbler lock
2. That type of lock/key that is commonly used on mail boxes , althought it is common enough on filing cabinetts.

3. I think this thread should be locked.

How about this?

Haved it sloped going in, then a straight drop off.

If its a mail box key you need to file it like unbreackable says and if its not then foillow the guides elsewhere,

Brmse please tell us what it fits,
