FAI Security Guard

[Guest kmillard]

I have just moved into a house that has a FAI Security Guard II system installed. The owner had turned the main unit off as he acquired a couple of cats, but then lost the key. I have tried to find contact details of FAI but it appears they no longer exist, is that right? If so does anybody know where I might be able to get a replcement key from.

Many Thanks.

If knowledge serves me correctly FAI vanished some time ago. There is a website that claims to carry some spares, its on an earlier link, I'll see if i can dig it out.

If you do run it up you may need to change your battery.

I'll get back to you with some information soon.

Thanks for the reply. I actually managed to open the case up and have been able to replace the whole key switch with a new one from Maplins, so I can now turn it off and on now.

Thanks.

I thought the suggestions above were quite good. What else do you need to know?

How do I open it up and change the key fitting over?

If you cant pry/force the lid open then your going to have to drill the lock off, go to maplins and buy a suitable replacement.

I have actually have finally got it off. I am from Australia but we have similar stores here. Are the new locks exspensive?
