Hi,
I have recently moved to a new property, and as such would like to replace the locks.
I am no locksmith, so was hoping to just replace like for like.
I have removed the front door lock, and it is a Legge sashlock style (3 lever).
I thought that this would make it easy to replace but the faceplate is only 140mm high. When I have been to the local lock shops, they all seem to be 152 or 165 high.
The back of the lock is 64mm.
Does anybody know where I could get a lock with the same dimensions, or is this style so old that I need to start chipping away at the door?
Thanks in advance
