    Default Milners Safe Lock

    A few days ago I had to open a Milners safe. I went to the box in the back of my garage and selected this lock to take as a pattern to work to. First thing I noticed was that the key was in what would normally be the locked position but the lock was unlocked. The Locks serial No. is 185524 dating it between 1881-1882. The Lock also has a spring loaded boltstump in the bolthead which acts as a anti picking device.
