No problem I can send you that info. But before you try to do anything spray it down good with PB blaster or Kroil penetrating oil. The vault head looks like it's been under water for sometime. It looks like you might have to replace the housing the lock goes into, it looks pretty rusty.

Thanks Randy, I look forward to the info. I've tried spraying it down a couple of times..and I just put another squirt in there this afternoon -- hopefully it'll work

Someone tried to drill one of mine recently. They used a tiny bit and attempted to go just into the pins and didn't leave any visible damage, but the key would go in really tight and it wouldn't unlock. I had to drill it. Before that they tried to drill another with a slightly bigger bit, but it opens just fine.
