    Default Looking for Bellco golden bell lock and key

    Picked up a Bellco golden bell machine that had a key broken off inside it. It was super jammed and even with the door open it would not come out. I ended up having to drill the lock and am now looking for a replacement.

    The lock is 3/4” diameter and is 2.25” long and is crimped into the latch bar. It’s not like most I’ve seen where the lock is bolted to the latch bar. If anyone has a source I’m looking!

    thanks,
    —Will

    Hello Willbird and welcome to the group

    Try checking with eBay seller "keep4safety". He has many parts and it may be worthwhile sending him a message if you do not see your needed part for sale.

    Thanks. I contacted the seller and he says since the lock is stamped into the bar none of the aftermarket locks will work.

    The only way is to find a genuine bar with lock or hack it up which id rather not do.

    hoping I can find something that’ll work. Still looking if anyone has parts!

    Just wanted to close out this thread. I couldn’t find the correct lock for this older machine so I bought a similar lock and went to work locksmithing...

    Ultimately I combined the original lock equipment and cylinder and the replacement lock core. With some minor “machining” to make them play nice I was able to keep all the original cabinet parts and not modify anything unnecessarily.
