2. Ідентифікація ключа

To ensure your replacement key functions correctly, it is crucial to verify that the lock code on your furniture lock matches the VR3657 code of this key. The lock code is typically stamped on your original key or directly on the face of the lock cylinder.

Опис зображення: An infographic titled "Where to Find Your Lock Code" illustrates four common locations for lock codes: directly on the key, on the visible face of the lock cylinder, on a label located inside or behind the lock mechanism, and on a label affixed to the cabinet or door itself. Important notes below the images emphasize ordering by manufacturer and that key cuts differ even if codes appear similar.

If you are unsure of your lock code, carefully inspect your existing key or the lock cylinder for a series of letters and numbers, such as 'VR3657'.

4. Принципи роботи

The Yale Lock VR3657 key operates a cam lock mechanism. When the key is turned, it rotates an internal cam that either secures or releases the locking bolt. Smooth operation relies on the key being fully inserted and the lock mechanism being free of obstructions.

5. Технічне обслуговування

Proper care will extend the life of your replacement key and ensure reliable operation:

• Тримати в чистоті: Periodically wipe the key with a dry cloth to remove any dirt or debris.
• Уникайте вологи: Keep the key dry and away from excessive moisture to prevent corrosion.
• Не примушуйте: Never force the key into a lock or attempt to turn it if it feels stiff. This can damage both the key and the lock.
• Lubrication (Lock): If the lock mechanism becomes stiff, apply a small amount of graphite-based lubricant directly into the lock cylinder, not onto the key.

6. Вирішення проблем

Якщо у вас виникли проблеми із заміною ключа, зверніть увагу на наступне:

• Ключ не вставляється повністю: Check for obstructions in the lock cylinder. Ensure the key is oriented correctly.
• Ключ не повертається: Verify that the key is fully inserted. Confirm that the VR3657 code on the key matches the lock code. The lock mechanism might be jammed; try gently wiggling the key while applying slight turning pressure. If the lock is stiff, consider applying graphite lubricant to the lock cylinder.
• Key Feels Loose or Slips: This could indicate wear on the lock's internal components or an incorrect key code. If the key is new, double-check the lock code.
• Lock Still Not Functioning: If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, the lock mechanism itself may be faulty and require professional service or replacement.
