    We just purchased a 1977 43' Double Cabin MY and I need to get extra skeleton keys made for the salon entry door. I have attached pictures of the key. Does anyone recognize the logo on the key?

    Thanks,

    Kevin

    Have you tried a local hardware store - TrueValue, Ace, Home Depot, or Lowes?

    Hi,

    If you can use a file you should be able to make on of those yourself.

    If you can't get a real one buy a key that has a similar end that is larger than the one you want and file it to match.

    I remember doing this as a kid with Rim Locks.

    That's a Southco/Mobella key. Their distributor in Tampa is Hardware Specialty Co. 727-545-1060.
