Clenport cashbox lock question

[OscarHarris]

Hi Guys,

I have come across a clenport machines with a T106 lid lock and what appears to be a clenport bottom lock. All of my clenport machines either use a 6048 or 7100 key for the bottom lock. Neither of these keys seem to open this machine. They both fit in the lock and feel a like a match but they wont turn. So my question is, are there any other common clenport cash box keys I'm not familiar with?

The lock is on fairly tight and I am assuming that it has probably just been over tightened resulting in this issue. I just wanted to double check before the hack saw comes out;)

Cheers, Jay.

Hi Jay
Sometimes I come across a machine cashbox key of 6048 and then another machine which is also a 6048 wont work with the same key but will work with another 6048 key. Quite strange I know!!
PM me if you need any help

It may be that the lock has been changed and has one of many combinations? Presume its a machine you have acquired?

Yeas, I have 3 keys that open about 95% of my towers and another 20 keys that open the other 20!

Yes Steve, the lock could have been changed at some point and be any combination. I wouldn't know. It does look and feel like a standard clenport lock though. But I could definitely be wrong, of course, it does happen from time to time;)

Sounds like I've been lucky thus far Andy, If my keys match the lock they tend to work, I'll be bearing it in mind if I have any issues in the future though!

It sounds like testing a few more keys and then cutting the bugger off if that doesn't work.

Cheers, Jay.

T106 is a newer but common top lock. 7200 is also quite common for cash box lock.

Just changed all my tower locks, now have two top lock & two cash box keys for all 300 towers & pringles.

got loads of spare cash box locks if anyone wants them.

Hi Pete,

I'm pretty much out of spare locks, how much do you want for them?

Where did you buy replacements from and what was the cost?
