2. Key Identification and Ordering

To ensure you receive the correct replacement key, it is crucial to accurately identify the lock code associated with your Kennedy toolbox. The T003 key is specific to Kennedy locks marked with this code.

2.1 Locating Your Lock Code

Your lock code can typically be found in one of the following locations:

• На оригінальному ключі: If you have an existing key, the code is often stamped directly on the key head.
• На циферблаті замка: The code may be engraved or printed on the visible part of the lock cylinder.
• On a Label Inside/Behind the Lock: For some toolboxes, the code is on a sticker or label located inside the toolbox drawer or on the lock mechanism itself, which may require opening the drawer or panel.
• On the Cabinet/Door Label: Less common for toolboxes, but some furniture items have codes on labels affixed to the cabinet or door.

Важливі міркування:

• Manufacturer Specificity: Lock codes are specific to the manufacturer. A T003 key for Kennedy will not work for another brand, even if the code appears similar.
• Key Cut Variations: Even if codes look similar across different brands, the actual key cuts (bitting) vary significantly by manufacturer. Always verify the brand.
