If you have lost the key to your mantle clock then you should try and look for the key. If you cannot find it then you should start looking for the spare mantle clock key. If it is an emergency then call the lock smith, although they are a bit costly.

A locksmith can re-key any lock, including a lock on a mantle clock. If you can take the clock to them it would be better, but they will make housecalls.

While you may be able to wind the clock with a suitabily sized wrench, it would certainly be highly recommended to get a replacement key. A local clockmaker should be able to provide a replacement key. Attempting to wind the clock with an improper tool could damage the winding stems.
