How do you pick the lock of an old safe Likly
Mine is quite old and I'm not sure how the crash. Does anyone know what might help pick the lock. I really do not want to pry. Nor has to call a locksmith face. Thanks
Try to lubricate the first with power of graphite. Then you need some metal spikes. A small flashlight, perhaps a small mirror. If you can see where I can give an idea if you have slots or blocking rewarded. If you can get a blank key that could agree on the key. The key can be carbons with a torch or a lighter. You can make marks in the margins.

Does anyone have any information on an old block of the company?
Who has a lock on the top of the ring and says: TSL CO has a look at it. In the face has a circle with the number 25 on it. At the edges of the face, reads as follows: two bits and face it: Six of the lever. The hole key is narrow with a bulge in the center and a center that appears to have a key with a hole in it for use. Note that this lock is pretty old, but not know anything about him. Could help in my search found nothing. Thank you.
It sounds like a train-type locks around 1900. You can start here researchinh: http://home.southwind.net/ ~ drcwks / lockinfo.html or Google "lock rail" or the lock switch "They are a collector's item hot, especially if a key work. Two bits means that the key is a type of skeleton with two sheets that are directly opposed. The key type is most often in the locks of British America. Six levers that means you have 6 glasses of lever.
