Q: Can I request a set of replacement keys, if I lose my keys?
We recommend that you register your key upon receiving your lock. This helps to identify the lock and key holder's owner during the approval process. All key replacements are approved by a manager.
Q. What is a key number? Is it different from a key code?
A key number is used to identify a set of keys. When a key order is made, a manager verifies ownership. Once ownership is confirmed, an assembler matches the key number given to its key code. The key code tells the assembler how to make your key so that it matches your lock.
Q. Where can I find my key number?
Your key number can be found on the key tag that is attached to your set of keys.

Q: Can I order a master key online?

Q: Does anyone else have the same key as my lock?
That depends on how the lock was ordered. Some locks that are ordered for specific fleets are keyed alike. Other locks that are ordered by fleets and/or individuals have one unique key code that is unique to that lock/lock set. Other locks for fleets and/or individuals have one set of keys, but may also have a master key that can open many different locks.

Q: I am having trouble unlocking my lock. What should I do? Help!
Stick the key into the keyhole, as far in as possible. Then, turn the key until it goes in further. Do this until it goes in completely and then turn the key to unlock. Remember, that your lock has a 9 disc locking mechanism. Sometimes these discs become unaligned. This is a good thing, it makes the lock extremely difficult to be picked.
If issues persist, apply Slick 50 to your keyhole and stick the key in all the way, working your way down as you turn the key and work your way through the discs.
Q: Why do you recommend using Slick 50? Can I use WD40?
NO. Do not use WD-40 or graphite to lubricate your WAR-LOK products. These are oil-based. Your lock will be ruined if you use these two lubricants. Please use Slick 50 One Lube. It is a water-based lubricant and will not cause damage to your disc locking mechanism.
Q: Are discounts available for bulk quantity purchases?
