catallis Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I recently bought 12 buzz bite machines. I'm looking into modifying but none the less I have no key. Any help or leads on where to get a key would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhfisher Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I believe these are the same as 1-800 machines - there are 8 different keys. I bought some the buzz bite machine for the coin mech (50 cents). I don't these machine can be re-purposed for any thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMD Snacks Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 So from what I've read , these machines can't vend anything but buzz bites accurately, so I think they're saying drill it out, since a key would just cost you money for no reason Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catallis Posted August 14, 2016 Author Share Posted August 14, 2016 Really wanting not to damage them. Money isn't a worry. As I am building displays with them. I need to be able to unlock and lock them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMD Snacks Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Gotcha.. Well kinda cuz i don't know what you mean by building displays with it but...until someone can better answer you, most machines ive worked with don't have codes written on them, you have to know which one it is. Maybe this one does, I have no clue, is it a tubular or straight key hole? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catallis Posted August 14, 2016 Author Share Posted August 14, 2016 It's a tubular key looks like it's 4 pin or slots on the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuikVend Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I have buzz bites machines currently in use. There are 8 options, as far as which key. Your best bet might be to take it to a locksmith, you might get lucky and all of them might have the same key code. As far as modifying, it is possible but far more trouble than its worth. They are made to vend buzz bites(which are still available). You can also vend Canel gum from them without any modifications, but you mash want to swap to a 25 cent coin mech if you go that route.

QuikVend Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Ebay. You would be guessing though. I say take it to a locksmith. He should be able to make a key for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
