    want to replace locks

    hello friends, i bought a beverage air dd-68 a while back, and the previous owner didn't have the keys to the two door locks. i'm looking to replace them, but the only ones i can find are the official beverage air replacement parts running at $25 each. i've looked around a lowes and the only ones i can find are for a door 1/2inch or less, my door is around 1 and 1/2 inches. any ideas?

    thanks

    Grainger, McMaster-Carr or MSC Direct would be good places to try.

    But couldn't Bev-Air just sell new keys?
    Malt is the soul of beer... and yeast gives it life..
    but the kiss of the hop is the vitality of that life!

    My three favorite beers: The one I just had, the one I'm drinking now and the next one I'll have.

      If you are on good terms with the owner of your local watering hole, and they have Bev Air coolers, ask if you can borrow a key. Many of those units are keyed alike & if you're lucky it will fit. If it does all you need to do is get a copy made. Or you could pull the lock & take it to a locksmith. It's no big trick for them to make a key.

                i bought mine used... all they asked was if the key had groves on both sides. i looked online and thats what the stock keys are like. so i guess they were indirectly asking if the locks had been replaced. i had no idea so i said yes, then they asked for my address.

                      i bet the locks that we recieved from bev air were for newer units.
