Visualizing a key code

Postby cr02452 » 25 Feb 2014 17:51

Hello - I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum for my question, but here goes: Is there a website or app that will visualize a key bitting specified by the user? So for example, if I want to "see" a Schlage C keyway 5 pin key bitted to 0-3-8-9-6, is there an online program that can do that? Thank you.

some of the key code software will do this (Code Source). i'm not sure there is anything online that is free that will do this.

You can try drawing a bar graph. The height will be based on how many steps there are (for example, Kwikset uses 6 steps, Sargent uses 10, and so forth). It might get you close.

I tried this in Excel...and it works pretty well. Thank you for the suggestion!
