Isn't WD40 highly flammable?
I DONT KNOW WHY HE HASNT ASKED ME FOR ORIGINAL WINFALL KEYS ? .. .. I have loads as one pair come with each lock and both locks on front same key - the whole 700 or more cabs all had suited exclusive locks and keeping a pair back from each machine I have hundreds of 284013 worth a try in my opinion?
Once the lock gets half drilled too late to try correct key so will need to continue snapping drill bits or just pop the door open with a decent big screwdriver then straighten the door edge with pliers and fit a new lock!
I posted a picture of them back up this thread
Unless someone else has swapped them but machines are little used why would they swap unless they lost keys?

…and that Fella is why you fooked them up!
Drilling metal is to be done at a low speed, it prolongs the life of your bits and gets the job done quicker.
I was told at college around 200 RPM for mild steel.
69er said he might have the numbered set of keys?
Honestly, also like 69er suggested the doors on things this age can be opened in about 3 seconds with one or two screwdrivers. You lot are just so fussy about putting a ding in your doors Think about all the metal dust, vibration and who knows what else that is damaging it by drilling into the lock.....
Edit: can also usually get in through the back and reach one or more of the doors as well.

If you use it constantly the bit doesn’t get hot. That’s the point.
It’s flammable but not so bad it’ll ignite off of heat alone in my experience.
I used it to set fire to a tree stump the other day and sometimes even a dimly lit match wouldn’t set it off
If you can get at the lock even a little, it’s worth spraying some WD-40 in there and then gently trying the key again. Sometimes you just need to give it a few minutes so the lubricant can work its way in and free things up. Just don’t force it too much, or you might end up snapping the key or damaging the lock.
He doesn't have keys mate hence the drilling
I've found UK locks quite easy to drill through only blunting cheap drill bits I got free with a Staples order over a decade ago lol!
It's Japanese security locks I've struggled to get through even with high quality drill bits. Titanium bits are expensive but worth every penny in terms of time and effort. If buying from Amazon read the reviews as some are crap.

I have been drilling quite a bit of mild steel of late ..
When visiting a screw fix or tool station
The quick release Chuck with the drill bit in it for the Bosch bi metal hole cutter . Has a great titanium 6.5 mm bit in it £7 but the £3.5 pound drill bits they sell snap!
I find this arbour for Bosch metal hole
Cutters lasts a life time!
Half price some
Stores at moment
They are all Amazon (no relation to the trading mail order people they were invented long after us) Winfall never made cabs just asked for personalised marquees.
