I think I would not lose more than my insurance deductible.

Not the key, not the lock, but the trim.

I have one storage door with worn trim at the lock thus the lock doesn’t have anything to lock behind. Any DIY ideas?

I went out to my shed and not thinking I put the key to my storage bays of the RV in the shed lock and it opened right up. Just had to laugh about that one. That key will fit alot of stuff.

Generac also uses them - the side panels of the large generator behind the local police building are "secured" with CH751s.

And for over 20 years Motorola used the CH751 in all of their older weatherproof two-way radio cabinets.

Hers’s the deal. The more something is “common knowledge” the higher the number of people will be that know about it. The higher the number of people are that know something, the higher the number of the wrong people that will know it too. If I was the O.P., I’d delete this thread. Theifs use google too.

Oh good grief. I learned this way back in 1986 when I lost the key to my camper shell. My division chief (M-Div, SSN-702) gave me a spare CH-751 key we had for some of the tool lockers onboard. I was flabbergasted then, but I was young......
