Another Edinburgh Locksmith’s week slips by !

Another reasonably busy week. Another 4 or 5 HMO locks installed plus quite a few jobs for my Property Factors and lettings agents.

Went out to a job at a farm the other side of Penicuik today to do a upvc cylinder change and ended up doing 2 x upvc cylinders + 2 x Bs3631 sashlocks too, so it ended up being worth my while “going the extra mile” for the job ! The farmer remarked that it was quite difficult to get people to come out this far from Edinburgh. In reality, for me it was only 12 miles each way but if I were a business in the centre of town you would have to add another 5 or 6 miles to that.

Back into Edinburgh and then out to a jammed upvc door in Lasswade. Nothing actually wrong with the lock other than the latch retaining screw had come undone and left the sashbolt jammed between the door and the keep. Good job these upvc door as flexible !

Weekend will be spent ripping out our shower-room ready for a refit…….. so sorry but life and death emergencies only this weekend. That plus compile a couple of quotes for one the Government Agencies for some firedoor hardware….. so no rest for the wicked !!
