Hey Peeps,

I just got back from school, and I was looking at the locks that were on some of the doors. They are made from Abloy I think, but I can't figure out how sombody could even pick these..Can't even imagine the key that goes in there..Anyways, here's a cheap drawing I made of what it kind of looks like.

Search. Somebody posted a link to an excellent pdf file a while ago that details the history of Abloy locks and how Abloy locks work. Very enlightening.

Schools

Man, schools are getting so high security. My university has nothing but medecos on 98% of the doors. However, the other day someone succeeded into getting into the library by using the "credit card technique" on a medeco-- luckily he was caught before he stole anything.

With a symetrical keyway like that, it could well be a dimple style key.

That looks similar to the abloy exec style keyway. I'd give you more information, but i'm using the onscreen keyboard (my regular one is dead)
