Buddy moved into an apartment while they wait on their home to finish. Here is the key they gave 'em. Got me wonderin' what the interwebs has to say about it. Thinkin' it almost look like the stock market from 2008-2011

Any of my locksmith friends ever see a tail piece like this? Found on a Schlage ND70.

Locksmith pro tip. When testing a core make sure the pin chambers are not facing the floor. That is all.

Don't let £49 Google ads locksmiths use a grinder in your home this is not how you open a lock customer was then charged £350 for a job that should cost about £140 call a genuine local locksmith or your local @MLA_locksmiths from there find a locksmith page.

This is the result of a unqualified and no polite words to it other than a cowboy. This job would of been so much easier, less hassle and cheaper had they called a professional first. Always ask a friend for recommendations or use a reputable organisation such as @MLA_locksmiths

This can be the results from not calling a professional. By the looks of it someone had attempted to hacksaw the cylinder open. If you need a locksmith then call the professionals, give us a call at Hames and Sons Locksmiths. Tel; 07713118306 hamesandsonslocksmiths.co.uk

Quick lock change for a new customer. Couldn't be bothered to order the correct size, so just used this one I had in the van from a previous job...
