Whichever of these need to be at least 10cm long my allen key is just short of reaching the damn things. No bits.

Already checked the usual nearby suspects of Home Depot, Rona and CT tonight nothing that could work.
KMS Tools or Summit Tools - t-handle hex. If those two places don't stock it, try Acklands Grainger. They can order the right one for you.

The other alternative is to use the triangle bit from a security bit set and use an extension.

If I had to take a lot of those screws out, I'd take a fucked up screwdriver and grind it to fit the screwheads.
