Cannot physically access server ( missing server key)

My firm was given a server
it is an IBM eserver xseries server

The key for the server (physical key ) was not provided and the side of the server is locked.

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement key or a way to break into the server ?

Thanks

Yes I thought of the drill idea, but I was hoping for a different solution with less chance of getting metal filings inside the server. I'll see if I can get a replacement from IBM.

If anyone has any other reccomendations , that would be great. I would like to get inside the server asap.

Thanks
