I am leaving for windells on monday and I have lost the keys to my YAKIMA skybox with my skis in it! my friend is currently looking for the keys in his woods where I think I lost them, I doubt the luck there. I need to know a way to get into it, I am going to Kittery Trading Post (a camp store were I bought it) to see if they can open is, but I think it takes a week to order a new key.  So I am wondering if anyone has ideas to open is, maybe there is a trick to open it locked, I dont want to have to resort to breaking it open with a hammer, but I am going to as a last resort, but I dont want to.  PLEASE POST SOMTHING TO HELP ME!!!!

it might cost a little more but you can call your local locksmith and get a key made to get in. when i accidentally locked myself out of my cottage my parents called this dude who came and made a new key for us. it costed something like 60$ i think

MAYBE JUST BREAK THE KEY PART OFF AND IT WILL OPEN. THEN ALL YOU WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE WOULD BE THAT NOT THE WHOLE THING. IDK MAYBE???

^by the way, i'd hurry, if you need to order a replacement key they close at 5 pm pacific. still don't know if they could help you in time. but it's worth a shot.

If the blacksmith doesnt work for some reason just take a sledgehammer to it and it'll open after the lock gets beaten off.

seems like it may work, but I feel like breaking the key slot off would just result in sawing the thing in half, being the only way to open it.
