I need the wafers and springs to rekey some locks. Besides Tweet/Dan, does anyone know where to get the parts? Specifically the wafers and springs. Some people call the wafers pins. I have not been able to find a source and I'd like new parts, not used from cores. Thanks

Thanks. I pretty much figured out how to do it. I just was wondering where to get supplies.
I do have to figure out how to read the keys, or find someone local, so I can get some new ones made with the correct code without just copying the old ones. |

I asked this question on another thread and the answer I got was that the key code will simply be the sequence of wafer numbers. Have to admit that I don't know if the number is stamped on the wafers, but if you can figure out which number wafers you have and what order they are in then you should have the key code. Anybody able to confirm that? |

Anybody able to confirm that? That was my guess. Only some of the #2 keys are marked but I measured and recorded the different sizes. I’m not sure from which end you start the code but I’ll ask the mobile locksmith that comes to our shop. Attached thumbnail(s) |
