I'm looking for a supplier of the sort of cam lock which requires the
use of a square section key to open. I think it's called a service
key.

The idea is to use a pair of these locks on each of the under-eaves
access panels in my loft. The cam would open into the frame that the
panel sits in.

I've seen things such as the panels which hide lavatory cisterns in
office washrooms secured with them but I've no idea what to ask for or
Google for.


TIA

I've sometimes heard the key referred to as a "budgie key".
