HELP! Lost my advanced mini dock keys--replacements?

#1 Post by threedaysrest » Sun Mar 29, 2009 10:36 pm

:help:

After losing my primary set of keys--including house, car, shed, garage, etc--I discovered my mini dock keys were on that ring, too. :cry: Now, my T60p is locked in place and I cannot remove it. :oops:

Is it possible to order a set of replacement keys? If so, from whom? And, how would I determine the proper key information for my mini dock, assuming all aren't keyed the same?

Thanks, fellow members, for your help.

Cheers,
~tdr.

Googling "replacement key thinkpad docking station" turns up these:

Thank you, Ray and Harry. I provided the information to IT Exchange, placed an order this morning, and it has already shipped! :o . I appreciate the quick response.

Cheers,

For next time, you could just try to get the dock unlocked. I lost the key for my X24's dock a few years ago and just got it opened at a locksmith. I figured if anyone was breaking into my house to steal stuff, they could just take the whole dock instead of the laptop alone.

Of course, if you use your computer at work or something, that's a whole different situation.

i have other laptops but i'll be honest i never use 'em
