I can send you a boot key if you need one.

They are common trailer locks but no one will cut them unless you say CH521 as then they can cross reference it with a Cash Box blank.

Just let me know.

Hi Andy, most locksmiths can cut a key to fit a lock. I'd look in yellow pages/ ring around. Might be cheaper if you can take Suzie Q to them- but you've got a trailer haven't you??
I lost the keys to a bike once; suzuki could send me replacement, but it was loads cheaper to put bike on trailer and take it to local locksmith. I can't remember what they charged, under £20 I think, took them 20 mins while I waited
The whole process was fascinating; they have a series of blanks which they coat in pencil lead; put it in the lock; file down where the pencilmark is NOT rubbed off ; repeat 'til the lock opens. Very James Bond!!
Other possibility is to get the key number ( it will be a peugeot or renault) either off Secma or ?? Cunninghams/importers/ or the AA may be able to help if you're a member.
Seriously, DON'T take a drill to it! at best you'll need to buy a whole new set of locks- that will cost ££££££ even off ebay.
Best luck/ wishes
Chris
