Vista 20P - lost key(s) for the panel box.
Hi
We just had the windows/doors replaced in our house. Woke up this morning and thought I'd try to re-work the security system (which is going to need a lot of work) and I can't find the key to open the box. I installed the box myself (replaced brinks). The honeywell tech services folk say contact your local installer...
Can anyone help ?
Thanks

Those ademco keys are pretty common. Basically, any ademco or ademco clone like a First Alert or ADT Safewatch uses the exact same key. If you can't find someone who has one (they are typically taped to the top of the can, or wedged under the edge of the door), simply break the silly thing with a flat screwdriver.
Insert the screwdriver and twist until the pins shear off. Then go to the hardware store and get a generic cabinet lock.
