golpher Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I just bought 4 doubles (used) all different manufactures. So now I have 4 different keys. Is it possible to get one key to work for all 4 machines, would I need to change out the locks. What is the best way to have the least amount of keys for all your machines? Thanks.

BluePlate Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Andy, Do you know the brands of these? A&A and Northwestern have the same style lock. Beaver has a different lock. I would call Camlock or a company that carries camlock. The locks run about $5.00 each and a key is about $2.50 each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golpher Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 I guess i will just carry the extra keys until I get rolling with more machines. Still trying to decide which type of triple I want to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T BIRD Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Andy.......what are the makes of the machines you bought? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golpher Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 The manufactures are northwestern, A&A, and 2 others I can't identify. I actually double checked all the keys w/ each machine and they all work on all the machines, so problem solved. Thanks for the help though. If you have an opinion on which manufacturer makes the best triple at the best price, I'm all ears. I think the one feature that I would really want is removable canisters. Seems like that would make it much easier to change product or remove it to clean the machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drvend1@yahoo.com Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Triple machine why are you guys not using a triple bulk vendors (AA-NORTHWESTERN-OAK-EAGLE ETC) instead of the triple units? it seems that you can do everything with regular bulk vendor and have the freedom to do toys as well. when i buy routes and they will have triple machines i pull them out and replace them with "real Bulk vendors. i would like to know for general info why the triple and not the small standard bulk vendor.

golpher Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 The triples seem to be less expensive than the 3 single heads on 1 stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
