    Default Sargent push key padlock

    I have this lock that needs a key made. I've got a few of the Ilco lookalike blanks that fit Yale push key padlocks - but they are a bit too small for this lock.
    Thoughts?

    I would pull the plug and verify that the keys aren't the right height. Then if they aren't convert a Safe Deposit key to work.

    I believe those took the old Ilco 1248S which was .335" wide x .050" thick, unfortunately long obsolete; try Ilco 1221L flat steel which is the same width & thickness.

    i have a 251 e .338 wide and .050 thick and the 1221 l .335 wide and .050 thick the 251 e is to wide for the yales (1031 or 1239 )
    you need them p.m. me where to send the 251 e is the same length as the 1239 but wider should work
