Description of Lucky Line Combo Skeleton Key 1 Flat 1 🔑 Notch Tip, 2 Pack (87202) - Improved SEO-friendly Product Name

🗝 BEST USE - on antique french doors or other antique door hardware. 🗝 FLAT TIP & NOTCH TIP INCLUDED - FLAT TIP is Intended for a warded lock—With a warded lock, a skeleton key lacks interior notches to interfere with or correspond with the wards, or obstructions, thereby allowing it to open the lock. NOTCH TIP -Intended for a lever lock—that is, a lock with a set of levers and wards—the skeleton key can push the levers to the correct height while bypassing the wards. In this type of system, each lock will still have its own key that corresponds with the wards; the skeleton key, or master key, can open any of the locks within that system. 🗝 MATERIAL - made with brass plated zinc that will not bend under continuous use. 🗝 LARGE HEAD - makes turning easy. 🗝 GENERIC CUTS - made to fit most antique door locks. Measures 3-1/4" in length.

It doesn't work for old house "Sears " / old door locks

Bought these based on previous recommendations that they work with old locks. We have an old Sears house (check out the Sears catalog and choose what features you would like in the house) and the door locks in the house are original. As soon as I received the package, the thickness was not the same as other houses. Tried on 3 of the 10 doors we have and NOTHING. Too skinny for work. If you want it for a different decoration but not for opening old doors

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Big and bulky

So close but no cigar

They rotate partially in the doors of my old Sears house, but not quite. However, I plan to use them as spaces to file and get a working key. Good business. Two days later I actually got the gear wrench working after filing one end. But I also had to take the lock off the door and break off the caulking paint that had built up inside the lock and clean it well and then oil it. It's really cool to finally have a lock on an antique bedroom door. But if your locks have been painted over, you'll…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Clarity

Open 1945 locks

My house was built in 1945. I was lucky that two keys worked in most of the locks in my house. The lock in my bedroom works with both keys, but one is better. My pantry lock had to be disassembled to get the deadbolt off, but a key worked and I was very pleased. With these keys I only failed at one lock. I need a different style and have already found the pattern I need. The keys are solid, but I'm sure I could break or bend them if I mishandle them. For their price they look great. The…

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Can't remember

Do not do that. The grip immediately released, locking me in my office.

My dear Kathleen. It had been ten minutes since the handle of my office key broke off, and the flat "ring" sounded like it had been the final bang of the last nail that had sealed my box forever. Though I thought I had enough muffins and coffee, I now fear that by the time you get home from the store with our kids, I'll be long dead. I regret so much. I should have loved you more I needed to keep our children closer together. But most importantly, I shouldn't have trusted the Zinc Key, which…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

I mean really old house

Worked great! My relatives live in this old house, I mean a really old house, around 1800 or so, and all the doors have skeleton locks. Unfortunately there are no keys in the house to lock these doors, so no privacy. The last time I was here (I'm there right now) I bought a lock pick online and it didn't work for short or anything. So I went to a locksmith and bought one there for $15 (plus tax) and it worked, but what a rip off, at least that's what I felt like, but then again the key I bought

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Modern

My friend's mortise locks from the 1920's are stamped with a '3' on the outer lid. However, both keys (2-bit and 3-bit) work. In fact, a 2-bit key (the one with no label) works better. From what I understand the number 3 could be a production line or something. It took as long as said to get here but you can't beat the price! Someone wrote something about a broken head. The original keys to your mortise lock were probably iron. These are brass plated zinc and they are not that strong. I'm sure…

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • I don't like anything, everything is fine
