Re key service
trying to find some one to re key my door locks to match my ignition key
|
I would think any quality lock shop could do that....Joe
|
What year is the car ,, The stainless steel cap on the door locks has to be destroyed to get the lock apart & the replacement with the 4 tabs does not look right.
|
its a 69 camaro
|
Call Jessers Keys in Ohio. He advertises in the NCRS driveline. He is not cheap but may be able to help.
I just had all of this done on my 69 Chevelle and used the original caps. Local Charlotte guy did it. |
Would it be easier to re key the ignition to match the door key?
|
I had a guy in Montezuma Iowa build me a set of door locks and ignition for a '67 C10. Very reasonable too. I don't have any contact info for him, other than on the 1967-72 truck forum, but sent him a PM asking for an email for you to contact him. If I get it, I'll PM it to you.

I would like information on this as well, I have a trunk key and an ignition key but no door key. The door locks must have been replaced and the key was lost.
Thank you for posting this. |

Originally the door / trunk is a different key than the ignition key on a 1969 Camaro No? Bill
|
No, Factory 69 used for door and ignition the square key and the oval was used for trunk and glove box. Some repro sets have a square key for ign only and oval key for doors, trunk & glove. But that is not correct.
I had one of those incorrect repro set (bought a long time ago) and had to have a local locksmith shop cut some original square key door locks to match the ign key that I had already installed in a real tilt column. They did install the tabbed covers, but once installed, that should not be noticeable (hopefully). |
Thanks for correcting me. Bill

Oval key fit console door too,when applicable.
|
I would love to find someone willing to key me some locks too;
I have the codes, and two of the original tumbers are here, but I want all new coded as original if I can. My hair brained logic is because GM-Canada still has these key codes on file, and should anything happen, I could (theoretically) be able to go into nay GM dealer, and get a new set of keys for my car. I had a lead a while ago, but he (like others mentioned here) hasn't replied. |
Is this for your '70 Formula ? If so, I can get you contact info. He only does pre 80's vehicles.

Question so on a 69 you can have replacement keys made by using the code on a door lock? |
Yes, if you find a locksmith that has the lookup tables.
