Identical direct replacement for worn out 10 1/2 year old lock
We originally purchased a set of keyed alike locks, from a local locksmith, when we moved. After 10 1/2 years of extensive use parts of the old lock were worn out and the key occasionally wouldn't move the deadbolt. After some research I found out the locks are still made, so went ahead and bought it. Once the new lock arrived in the post it was a simple 30 minute job to remove the old lock, swap the lever set and refit the new lock, without having to alter the mortice or the holes in the door.
With so many manufactured goods changing design over time, and/or manufacturers going out of business, it's great to find some products can still be repaired or replaced without needing to make modifications.
