I got a gumball machine last week from a business relocation, alone with 2 tons of scrap metal.

The machine is in great condition, and my in laws said they wanted it for their body shop. In return, we can split the profits from it, after buying the candies to put in it when it needs filling up, etc.

2 questions though.

  1. How do open it at the top to replace the candy. I am sure it will need to be re keyed or something.
  2. How do you open the change compartment. We looked and couldn't find any release switches, key holes, or anything.


Since I am sure, it will need to be rekeyed, who can we call for that. Just any normal vending machine company, or would a lock smith do?
