I have a customer who wants keys duplicated for a bunch of his Sentry lock boxes. The keyway looks like a Y11 but the blade is shorter. I can cut down my regular Y11s but I'd rather have the correct blank. I can't find a short Y11 in the ILCO catalog. No code on the locks. I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could give me the number/manufacture of a short Y11.

try Sentry..

I thought of that too but it seems Sentry sell the cut keys for between $12 - $25, depending on how fast you want it delivered, so I don't see much incentive for them to give me the key info, but thanks for the suggestion.
I went through the ILCO catalog again and found one that works great. It's an ESP ES8, ILCO 1531.

Sentry still may identify the correct blank for you. you won't know if you don't ask.
still think it may be a National D8782 just not sure without seeing the keyway.
my2¢
Skip, It might be a National ? D8782 ilco # S1069H
g'luck

you're welcome Skip. the (National D8782, ilco # S1069H) were just a guess because Sentry has been known to use that keyway. if its correct? it is probably the correct blank and the others would be alternates. guess it doesn't matter that much these days. during my apprenticeship back in the early 80's, I was trained to always use the correct blank when possible.
g'day to ya
Try Fort original (lock manufacter for Sentry) 54G.

Thanks,

thats not a bad idea.. when I did my apprenticeship. I had to stamp the keys and stock the shop keyboard. was asked to examine each key both when I stamped it and also when I put it on the board. this was a fairly large shop with a very large keyboard.
personally I like the 70's :-)
g'day
yep !!! I will never forget that "brass cube" :-)
I've used ILCO H1054S.
