Sesame Padlock "Key"

Post by Anthony P. Jeske »

Hi:
My boat came with Sesame padlocks, but the previous owner didn't supply the "key" used to change the combination. If anyone has one I could borrow, I'd sure appreciate it.

Tony,

I am guessing a bit, but a nail about 3/16 ths or 1/4 in diameter with the tip cut off ought to do the trick; use a size that just fits in the hole. I don't think you can go past the correct position when you depress the key, but I am not certain. The supplied "key" does bottom out on the handle loop. Even so, it wouldn't take much experimentation to get it right. Our lock is on board Parfait, but let us know if you need more help and I will retrieve the "key" and get you a copy or something.
