In this video we are going to take a look at, and make keys for, a wood double hung window lock. These locks were typically found on older houses and sometimes called sash locks.
I had a house just a few weeks ago with about 20 of these on them and every single one, painted over one way screws so no choice but to make keys by impressioning. Customer had a very typical 1980’s add on to the house so there ended up being three different keys for all of his. Luckily most were on one key (the originals)
So no, one key doesn’t work them all for those consumers that are invariably going to send me a email asking for a key to be mailed to them. Call a locksmith, if they don’t know how show them this video (which will probably piss them off)
