Missing Key for Hakuba Case
Debra L Rothenberg, Photographer
New York | NY | USA | Posted: 5:24 PM on 09.16.06
->> Hi everyone,
I have a Hakuba case full of "stuff." It seems to have locked itself and I can't find the key. After many emails to the company with no response, I am wondering if anyone has this box and a spare key?
One good thing about these cases for anyone thinking of purchasing one-they ARE good. I have tried to break into it with no luck.
If you have an extra key (it came with 2, and I can't find either one) PLEASE email me.
THANKS

Debbie

->> I can afford a new box. I don't care about the box but it has a lot of lenses inside it. In NYC, I doubt that the Fire Dept would waste their time on it. (I laughed at this-not sure if you were serious but it was funny)

->> if you can't find someone with a key, call your local camera stores and see who carries the Hakuba cases. explain your situation and ask them if you could bring your case down and borrow a key to open your case. hopefully the keys are still the same.

->> Debbie,

Have you tried a locksmith? I just looked up those cases and see that there are two styles of locks. Both are very easy for a locksmith to open. If your case is the type with the metal loops that slip over the the top half, you have the option of drilling out the rivets or take a dremel tool to the loops.
