What do I do if I lose the key to my fireproof filing cabinet?

Lost fireproof filing cabinet keys can be replaced through several approaches: (1) Contact the manufacturer with the cabinet's model number and lock serial number (typically stamped on the lock face) — most manufacturers can cut replacement keys. (2) A locksmith with commercial furniture experience can often make a replacement key or rekey the lock. (3) Some cabinet manufacturers sell compatible replacement lock cylinders that come with new keys, which can replace the entire lock. (4) As a last resort, a locksmith may be able to pick or drill the lock (which may damage it, requiring a replacement lock). Always make a duplicate key immediately when replacing — keep one in a secure off-site location. FindOfficeFurniture.com — call 888-719-4960 for manufacturer contact information.
