If anyone is dismantling their Rapido lock can they try and take measurements (as full a set as possible). I don't have a key for mine so need to replace the lock and as I can't open it before next NZ summer (your winter) it would be helpful if I can start the search now. I think the vital measurements are the thickness of the barrel and the length as I know it has to be very short. I have found a source of short locks but pointless buying if they are too thick. They are very expensive down here.

Alan how about I get a key copied from one of mine then mail it to you? You could just remove the barrels & alter the pins so the key fits like I emailed to you the other week? That's if I can get a key cut that small.

That would certainly help Tich, I'll email you privately. Thanks. I think it would still be useful though to have the measurements for future reference, there are other threads about lost keys so it must be a not infrequent occurrence.

Did you manage to buy replacement locks Melbel? If so where? We have half a key so must have the other half in the lock that doesn't work.
