Common Key Order Problems
Common problems when ordering keys
for help identifying your brand see “which brand do i have ” Several different companies use the same numbers for their locks& keys BUTthe keys are totally different here is an example
6 different locks with 6 totally different keys BUT they all have the same key & Lock # (# K113 in this example )
Dom Reff lock K113 from germany go to Reff Knoll
Knoll K113 lock go to Knoll Reff page
Lock numbers are upside down half the time because the lock turns M looks like W 6 looks like 9
Knowing the brandhelps solve some of this confusion also knowing if the key is “single sided ” or” double sided” helps Single sided Double sided
