My parents have a garden gate and the lock has become stuck. The key turns freely in it but it stops abruptly when engaging (I presume) the bolt. I've tried some liberal application of WD40 inside the key hole, on the key and on the bolt, what little of it I can see, but no joy.
Does anyone know of anything I'm missing which might budge it? I think it must be the bolt itself having rusted and become stuck, as the key turns fine until engaging the bolt.
Any advice much appreciated.
