Hi Jim,

One thing you can do it to remove the cylinder, insert the key you want to use 
with the lock, and then file down the pins so that the key will work in that 
lock.  That also makes it such that other keys besides the new key and the 
original key would operate the lock, but since most folks won't even have keys 
that fit, I don't think it is opening up too big of a security risk.
