I must admit you guys at the locksmith Edinburgh shop it was a little frustrating because a 1/4 turn on the wheel screw made it unlockable. So the tolerances were a bit tight. And yes it did feel like one of the hook bolts might have just been catching a tiny bit.

There wasn’t any obvious sign of it on the keeps, but I was surprised that the whole mechanism was moved by turning the key - that's asking for a snapped key at some time.

I was planning on doing any final adjustments when/if I could find lockable handles. I guess what I had in mind hasn't been invented yet so, I'll go back, take more time on the adjustments and fit a bolt. But thank you for all the suggestions everyone, much appreciated.

Just another option I normally use them when old lock is obsolete use combination of either one or 2 cal locks and patio door bolts, works out better security than the original lock. How about designing key clamp much like the key impressioning clamp.

Very easy to make from 25mm aluminium/nylon rod cover with a non slip grip with grubs crews holding the key in place could even buy a pair of bike handle grips.

I have them on my own house, easy to fit but be aware there are 2/3 different shape plates for different applications, quite a good secondary lock, I would definitely recommend them to a customer.

But the problem with that design from what your saying is there is no room to rotate the key a full turn. So if you can make a clamp that is rod based no wider than the key head this should turn with no restrictions. Anyways I hope you sort something out for them at the locksmith Edinburgh workshop. Arthritis is a hell of a disability.

Are all old style mila gearboxes now copies or do mila still make some genuine ones? The Aldridge and Kings ones are legit I believe, well I have been buying them on the assumption they are.

Had to go back to one I fitted 11 months completely seized up and it exploded when customer forced it up and locked it. I was convinced it was going to be a door alignment problem that had caused it but put a new gearbox on tried it with door closed and alignment absolutely perfect.

Gearbox was from MPL and this is the second dodgy one I've been back too. I get them from brisant now and no problems with there's yet. Thought they might all be copy's now. I’m trying them out, no problems so far. I tend to trust Aldridge a lot more in terms of warranty and returns.

I know that doesn’t compensate if you have to return to a job, open the door again and swap a gearbox but it makes me feel they wouldn’t sell the gear if they didn’t have confidence in it. Does anyone know where I can get one of these? It's on a wooden door with a Lockmaster 2 hook & dead bolt strip.

I've looked in the usual places locksmith Edinburgh but no joy. The universal ones I've looked at are flat and I need one that sticks out a bit from the door frame Height - 180mm Width - 19/20mm. Distance from top of bolt hole to bottom of latch hole - 53mm.
