Hi, I just won a jukebox at a local auction however it did not come with keys. It has an ace tubular lock and I would like to get it open.
My options are
1) Drilling, but due to the sensative nature of the machine and not knowing what is behind the lock I would prefer a less invasive manuver.2) I have a friend in the biz and he has a 4 similar jukeboxes by the same manufacturer and stated the same key he has works in all four of his jukes and may work in mine. Problem is he is not local but has been kind enough to give me the XX-1234 number off his key. Can I get a key made with the XX-1234 number that I have?
3) Call a locksmith, although I am trying to get this open on the cheap. I wouldn't mind spending $25 to get it open and if the jukebox works another $25-$50 to get it rekeyed.I am in the raleigh NC area if anyone can help.
Or if there is someone that can fabricate a key with the xx-1234 number that I have
Also on the lock it state Ace(r) with a small TT above it if this helps at all.
Please respond to rpresutti at bellsouth dot net if you can assist.
