This has been covered in the forum - do a search.
Best advice - remove the cover and go to a locksmith and have him pick it. Tell him it is spring loaded and turns counterclockwise. Once he has it out you can have it re-keyed to match your other locks.

Drilling it out is a last resort - See Duane's web site for more information.
