In the last 4 years the locksmith Streatham store have only changed one mechanism as a security upgrade, the other hundreds have all been down to failure primarily in locked position.
The diyer is not going to be able to take this on so I am not worried about losing MPL work just because the DIY stores are stocking them. I think it’s a job too far for the manufacturers to expect the public to do their own MPLs, don’t think it will happen and on the contrary all the evidence points the other way, my MPL work is increasing week on week. Same here Simpleton, especially as all the new development around here are fitting ERA mechanisms on composite doors. Having lots of failures so a nice stock of gearboxes on the van is a great income source. The ERA repair lock is a total nightmare far too complicated for the DIY, The Yale doormaster is designed for the DIY market wait a couple of weeks and you will see the display stands appearing in all the DIY stores. The punter with a failed ERA lockcase will take a trip down to the big store and try and replace it with the Yale. My local locksmith Streatham shop is going to stock them and selling them at more or less trade price to all the local joiners and public so buying trade and selling them at retail to the customer is a no go.
One thing I can see that will help the locksmith is when the door is jammed closed how do they open the door? The long term reliability of these lock is another question they have a weak lockcase that is if they are still using their original lockcases I still can't see the majority of Diyers managing to fit these. I got a call from a UPVc Company that replace windows, and changes sealed units. They also do the odd mechanism replacement apparently. Today they phoned me up asking me how I would remove a bog standard lock from a UPVc door, where there were no keys. I said I'd pick it. 'How do you 'peck' it? With a Hammer and Chisel?' was their reply. I warned them that taking a hammer and chisel to it would most likely damage the mechanism, and I explained I would PICK the lock. He said 'Is it difficult to pick locks then? Yes Very. Takes years to learn, I replied. Wink never mentioned the Chubb I bumped yesterday.
My point being that if this is a UPVc Company, that has been doing this sort of work for over 20 years well you get my drift. Having said all of that how long have shops been selling mortice locks and cylinders, each of which come with full fitting instructions and we are still out there on a daily basis changing and fitting them. Locksmith Streatham fitted one of these, the Professional version, on Tuesday. Used my CES Vario Flex once again to secure the door while I was waiting for the Doormaster to come in stock. The Vario Flex covers more backsets than the Yale Doormaster too. |
