Amen to that!

Monarch does not handle the type of locks generally used on changers.

I would heartily suggest contacting

Midwest Vending Security

PH: 800-767-6894

They are located in Toledo Ohio

They can help you more on this application then we can.
Suggestion: Do not try to get off cheap. Get the Medeco!!

As to the coin boxes. You may want to replace those as well.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER - NEVER HAND YOUR KEYS TO SOMEONE WHEN YOU WOULD NOT GIVE THEM YOUR WALLET. THE KEYS ARE YOUR MONEY!!

AND ALSO be sure to the read the most recent post I have put up in the Editorial and the Meanderings. It is more information on keys and such.

I am curious how you resolved the dilemma.

Tough break...the previous owner had employees stock the changer only. Somehow that feels too risky to me.
