Basically our lass have fucked the lock on the front door this morning and the key is just spinning , I can get an ossilating cutter down the gap in the door will it get through the lock latch thing? Refuse to pay 120 quid for a locksmith
Yeah that’s what I’m thinking is a canny gap can actually see the lockA mortice lock?
A bit more tricky then, where you need to drill is where the door is.
Could you get a thin cutting disk on an angle grinder in there.
Thanks mate I’ve seen one of my mates cut my old dead lock off with a mains saw one that’s like a sword fishActually, if you wait 10 minutes, ill tell you. I'm sure I have an old dead lock in the garage. I'll see if the blade makes any mark on it.
I rang them he said starts at 120 for thatI used a locksmith a few months ago and only paid around £40. Based in Roker I think if you want the details. He was brilliant tbf.

Have a go, what’s the worst that could happen.
I think he meant a reciprocating saw. As you say a multi tool would be a bit of a job to go through a lockI doubt a multi tool will go through a door lock.
You going to need a few blades.
I'd drill out the lock barrel instead.
The security curtain has worn away.Not sure how you could do what she apparently has with a mortice lock

just use the back door and spend the 120 quid on drink
NivverHe can damage the door and frame which will cost far more to fix.
Aye one of them but I’ve got a Bosch’s ossilating cutter tooI think he meant a reciprocating saw. As you say a multi tool would be a bit of a job to go through a lock
Thanks mate don’t think it’s got them cores like it’s just brass solidIt flew through the brass (unsurprisingly) but came to a standstill when it hit the first of the two steel cores that run through it.
