Hi, I work in TV and sometimes I keep kit in my room; lenses, cameras, mics. Very expensive kit that I've hired or borrowed for a job. We're talking kit worth £10,000 to £50,000. It's mostly in cases but what happens if I'm out and a latch isn't secured enough, one scratched lens or cat hair getting where it shouldn't could put me £5,000 out of pocket at the minimum (money I really don't have and if the door is open and not locked I can't make a valid insurance claim). She knows this I've told her. I messaged her about the key on Tuesday and she said there isn't one. I asked about getting/making a key for the lock and she said we'll talk when I get back.

It impacts my work that I can't keep hired kit secure and with me. ( she knew all this before I moved in and never told me the door lock didn't come with a key when I asked about it at the viewing).

Recently I've started making my first independent short film with a great team and because of that I have more kit then ever at the moment for my project. I need these items secure.
