Nick,
The door lock codes or stamped on the lock insert itself. Your heritage 
cert. will tell you the original key codes. Many times lock handles are 
changed for various reasons, lost keys , accidents,ect. You can always re do 
the lock insert ( same code # example FP or FS series ) to match your 
original key from the certificate. A trick I have found to remove insert( if 
your curious about finding the code ) is to obtain a few keys of the same 
series, you can insert a key into the lock( door handle removed from door) 
and try and pull the insert out,most of the time you can oull it out one or 
two tabs.Insert another key and more often than not it will hit a 
combination of tabs to let the lock insert come out of the handle. Then you 
can physically see the code stamped on the lock insert. If this is all too 
confusing you can contact Pete Groh. I'm sure he can help with finding a 
correct combination for you.
Good luck,
