I want to obtain another key for the door lock, but I have so far been unable to find locally a key maker who has the right sized blank. Can I get blanks from the factory, or is there another source you can recommend?

I requested key blanks from my dealer when I took delivery of my boat and they were able to obtain them for me - took about 3 weeks. I don't know if they went to the factory or Diamond Sea Glaze, but I'm sure that Diamond Sea Glaze would be the ultimate place to obtain the keys since they are the door manufacturer.

Good luck

Chuck, we had copies of this door made at specialty lock and key business and it was a bit spendy but worth it. The hardware stores and home improvement centers do not carry this blank, I would keep looking for the specialty business.
 
Chuck,

Had same problem...As with all the other problems...I called Andrew and problem was resolved. I have been told the key has to come from Somewhere in Scandanavia...hence the difficulty in finding.

Good luck

Diamond Seaglaze has the blanks at $6.00 each plus shipping. lbrown
 
I happen to have a couple extra here. I will send them out today!
 
See...All problems can be solved...Just call AC or maybe we should call him ProblemBuster! 😀
 
So I got the mail today and there was an envelope from Fluid Motion with a key blank in it. Thanks Andrew!

The company that makes the keys and locks is TrioVing in Norway. I tried many places in the Baltimore-Washington area, but nobody had heard of them, although they seem to be a reputable company with contracts to make locks and keys for large cruise lines, the US Navy, etc. I finally found a web site for a locksmith in the UK that has the key blanks. I ordered 4 from him, so I should have smooth sailing when they arrive.

You should have ordered 4 DOZEN, then you could have sold them to the rest of us!

Contact info please, as I have already dropped one key into the murkey snake infested waters of Smithfield Station, VA and did not feel like diving for it. I now use the Davis Key Bouy.... 😳
