Traffic light control cabinet
Removed the old guy from an abandoned utilty pole. Pole is scheduled for removal. Anyway Nick gave me some good info on this box, said it was from the early 1940's
I spoke to Nick and he told me what type of key I needed, ( #1 skeleton key ) I called several lock smiths, I was quoted $50.00 on up to $125.00 for a key. I went to the Home Depot, found 2 skeleton keys for a $1.97. As you can see, worked just fine. Unfortunately, the original controls have been removed.
