I am going to an old shamrock station that i bought some stuff at. My question is how do you get them off the wall ?? The condom one has the rod in the front with a pad lock and the comb one had a pad lock on the top but it wont budge . I am going to use bolt cutters to cut the pad lock but there are no keys to the machines . Didnt know if there was a trick to getting them off the wall that yall knew of. I thought about posting in the non petro section but i think condom machines and old gas stations go together and it is in a shamrock station. Any help would be appreciated thanks

If ya didn't get the item ya paid for, machine is EMPTY. Taking the machine Won't help!
Find another machine & try again.

On the old machines the back doors were usually screwed to the wall. You had to open the machine first.

Well the only thing that i found to get it off the wall that would work was a pry bar. Bent the back of the wall mount but some hammering and massaging she is almost as good as new . There were 13 condoms and 8.25 in quarters .Also got a 15' x 6' BF GOODRICH neon sign and a 6' us tires sign pretty good trip
