Subject: Re: Key for LG45 door handle
Thanks for the reply Laurence
I have got numbers stamped on the locks but they are an "OO" series and after some research today it seems these were not made by Union or Wilmot and Breeden but a much smaller manufacturer called "Tenaxit" who also made the "Tenax" fasteners commonly found on MGs and in the boot of Mk VI Bentleys amongst other things. ( Similar to lift the dot but more fancy with a button with a spring instead and still available today as repros. from trimmers like Woolies)
It seems Tenaxit also supplied doors locks for the Airline MG Coupes but went of of business many moons ago...
I have found a lock and key chap willing to have a go finding some blanks but he needs the lock barrels which is a hassle so if anyone does have any Tenaxit key blanks it would make life a lot easier and no doubt less costly...
Cheers
Bill
