Broken Key In Lock
A customer called out a locksmith with the problem of a Broken Key In Lock. The following day that customer called us asking if we would go and have a look. They told us that the “locksmith” they called said he couldn’t do the job because it was an electric lock, he left site having unnecessarily sold them a new cylinder complete with 6 keys which he left behind. When I arrived on site I was horrified to find the lock completely dismantled and left in a pile on the floor behind the door! It was a pile of all the parts belonging to an electric Assa Abloy lock, live wires were hanging out of the door, the building had been left unsecured. This would have been a simple job for a professional locksmith who would know how to unscrew the cylinder, extract the piece of broken key and then screw it back into the lock, no new cylinder required! I re-assembled the lock back on the door, most importantly left the property secure and one extremely happy customer. What should have been a quick, standard priced job ended up being much more expensive.
