Locksmiths Camberwell stock Yale, Union, Era as these seem to be the most popular and also the Legge value from duffels as it fits straight in 90% of the time although the face plate can be short (also carry wood filler/ white paint) Best way to see what’s popular in your area is time and check what the local hardware and diy stores sell.
I use the Asec range of mortise locks as they will go in place of most of the mortice locks without too much modification , only exception is the Chubb range where the backset to the keyhole is different and jumbo escutcheons are a must. 114s are expensive! Most guys use a budget range to maximise profits, my weapon of choice is the Union Strongbolt, I also use ASEC deadlocks. There are always good deals at the main wholesalers for quantities of 10 etc. Had a lock out today from a local letting agency today, would need locks changing, so all good. Turned up to find the normal upcv door as advised was actually a wooden with rim lock and deadlock, still not a big lock change job. It looked like the lock was an Era Endurance.
Out with picks but couldn't pick it up, no feel glad I've ordered the wires so decide, stuff it. Drill it for a change got my drill double check the book, up 24mm left 14mm . No anti drill do straight in, bolt side lock right not left the levers and springs are now everywhere! Struggle for a bit, by now I've got the door to myself, so call another local locksmith I spoke to a while back. Thankfully he comes to give me a hand and gladly nearly 2 hours later we're in , so with locks changed, door patched up, keys dropped off to letting agency, I popped round to drop off a thanks for the help to the locksmiths Camberwell, have a good chat about stuff and life, all sorted. I arrived home with my pride and confidence a bit dented but tenant is in, letting agency have new keys and both are happy. That is until the wife said, you think they'll use it to try and discredit you they're like that no we get on OK, good chap, agreed to swap work etc.
Then curiosity gets the better of me and I have a nose at facebook only to find me getting a bit of a ribbing, for incorrect drilling and not correctly identifying the lock, and to be honest, I had but the drill points for the endurance and viscount are the same , if you know your left from right. Long story short, listen to that voice in your head when you're about to try and drill to the left of a bolt side lock when it say to you that seems a bit weird and I guess be a bit careful who you trust outside the locksmiths Camberwell. Just for the record the other professional locksmith also mis ID'd it, but in the end I did drill the wrong point, something I will never, ever do again. |
