Lock Dilemma

[MerlinGTI 3]

My drivers door lock is completely knackered! Key gets stuck and won't turn, I'm guessing the tumblers are shot.

 

Peugeot can't supply a barrel sweeted to the original key as they no longer have the key numbers on file.

I do however have 2 brand new locks. I would like these retumbled so they work off the original keys.

Problem being the only place I know of in the SE are complete cowboys. Cut a key for me wrong, and did a mates Peugeot lock for him but any similar key worked in it!

 

I'm going to have a good old fashion google sesh in a minute, but does anyone know a good place in the Se Kent/London area or online would be great.

 

Mis-matched keys are not an option

knackered lock barrels dont happen very often, they can get a bit sticky though and I have freed off many with a liberal dousing in wd40/gt85 etc.

 

also worn out c/l solenoids can make it seem like the lock is stuck, I thought the same on my 205's boot till I investigated and found a seized solenoid.

No central locking, a bit of WD ain't gonna sort this one I'm afraid! I White spray grease them a couple of times a year anyhow.

 

Maybe sones had a go at the lock? Anyway .........
