Changing Letter, Gate & Door Lock

[Warrior88 0]

Manage to change all 3 by myself.

What you need is a long nose plier, adjustable spanner & phillips head screw driver.

Material

Letter - $3 or $15 ( good type )

door - $10

gate - $ 12

After unscrew, just watch carefully which part fit to where and the rest is a breeze.

Don't need a lot of technical skill.

Next task, gonna change all the 3 bedroom lock. Might be a bit catchy.

Will try 1 door first

It is really easy to change them yourself.

Consider the money your save, and for your own security.

Try dismantling and bring them to your neighbourhood hardware shop

They are easily available

Can help you if you are on the residing on East Side.

my case was because the previous owner lost the key, so had to get the guys down.

They used a drill to drill through the keyhole and took quite a while.

After that fixing the lock was done in 5mins.

If i shift house next time, i might give it a try! Just for fun.
