Thinking including the box

TradeShowContestSuppliesFilter: Hundreds of keys to bring them all...where can I find them?

One of my coworkers wants to do a "whose key will open the box?" promotion for a trade show in early March. Any recommendations for a source who can provide her with a kit containing lots of mailable dummy keys, one or two real ones, and the lock? (If it has an included box, that's great too, but if not, she can probably just about manage to find one herself.)

You might try looking for companies that produce promotional items (logo'ed pens, mousepads, mugs, etc). I remember seeing something like what you're looking for in one of those catalogs. Can't find one now, though.

Any locksmith could provide you with a lock or lock box + as many non functional but correct keys as you want.

how many keys do you need?

you can buy a lock, keys, and then take key blanks, cut them all wrong (using a different key as the master) and those are the "dummy" keys. (cut blanks that dont fit.)
