Very interesting indeed Derek 👍 Locksporters are ,in a way , amateur locksmiths! In what direction would You like to see Locksporters to travel ?
@DerekMercerlocksmithКүн бұрын
I know of at least one locksmith who did locksport first. Turning something you like doing into a job is always a good idea in theory but not always in practice.

We had to do this with the mother in law when she got dementia. Before the dementia she always put the snip on the door so she never got locked out which normally is a great habit to get into. Unfortunately though when she got dementia we would find she had automatically put it on and the door was always unlocked leaving her extremely vulnerable. So there are cases when this is a really good idea. Great info. Cheers Derek.

Thanks for watching Roy think these cost between £50-70. The biggest flaw on the inside is that they use ordinary screws and not security screws so no real need to pick the lock on the inside.

I must confess it seems strange that these latches are still used. I have 5 or 6 still in use on internal doors at work. I'm feared that one day the snib will fail and lock us out of a room 😬. Having said that I think (and correct me if I'm wrong Derek) that a failed snib only matters if the lock is a specific way round?
@DerekMercerlocksmithАй бұрын
Thanks for watching Roy. There was a 5 lever mortice deadlock on this door as well so all good. In regards to snibs it would only cause a problem if the snib goes down as over time it can become worn and drop if the door is slammed. If its being used on internal doors then I presume the snib isnt being used and so you could either disable the snib by taking the nightlatch to bits or even superglue it so it cant be used.

As a joke, on one side of the lock he wrote 'fcuked' and on the other he wrote 'hole in one' :) Anyway, I mended it and turned it into a challenge lock: #61 Unfucked. It turned out to be a little cracker and that's why I wanted that drilled out lock 😃 Cheers Derek, you Sir are a Star. I'm in No need of more locks 💕🙏🏻💕

You can get overnight locks from Northwest Hardware think the make they have is Simplefit or through Aldridge Security if possible I would get the GU overnight locks as they are the smallest gearboxes on the market and will fit the majority of the others.
