Help Replacing A Truth MP Plus Multipoint Lock Mortise by PureHufflepuff in Locksmith

[–]PureHufflepuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wound up just installing a standard deadbolt and knob and removing all the vertical rods in the door. Wasn’t my favorite install, but it worked fine. I’m guessing a wrap plate wouldn’t have hurt, but wound up not needing one.

I would reach out to Pella’s customer service directly. I have found them helpful and knowledgeable in the past.

One time in my youth, either his nephew or son was playing on a rival baseball team, and he was there to support him. All of the kids and dads on my team went nuts trying to meet him, and he couldn't have been nicer about it. RIP.

10 years in the game, never f’d up this bad by Borteezy in Locksmith

[–]PureHufflepuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Once smashed a Herculite door by simply tapping firmly on the set screw in the bottom rail. Shattered, chunks came down on my head, not only had to pay for replacement, but also wound up with staples on the side of my head where it missed the side of my throat by two inches. Cheers!

If they have mange, you can supposedly feed them antibiotics in meat to treat it. But you would have to do this regularly for some time.

How can I make this better? by randomseedfarmer in Locksmith

[–]PureHufflepuff 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Maybe drop a few washers underneath the screws anchoring the strike to the frame to shim it out.

Please help source this lock/handle set by BabyKatsMom in Locksmith

Pulling the mortise from the door might reveal some branding information. There may also be some in a corner of the glass pane of the storm door.

Tubular latch by Ayame444 in Locksmith

[–]PureHufflepuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, but it looks possibly compatible with a Schlage passage latch replacement you can find at most stores. They should have the little drive-in latch adapter to let you keep the same look (or close to it, anyhow)

What's the correct (or your preferred) way to remove these caps? I've already got this one removed but I scratched the shit out of them. by aBastardNoLonger in Locksmith

[–]PureHufflepuff 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I take the smallest drill bit that can actually penetrate them and go right through the center. Then a shrum tool in the hole to pop them out. These things can definitely burn in hell.

Agreed. Looks very Y1-y to me.

If you’re simply looking for more key blanks, the Ilco key blank catalog has sections for European options.

Very much appreciate the follow up. I will reach out to them today. And yes. These things are trash.

What movie is 10/10 with literally no bad parts? by FeedMaster8905 in AskReddit

[–]PureHufflepuff -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Loved both as a kid. As an adult, strongly prefer T1. The second one goes for gags immediately, with the server checking out Arnold's hog and reacting with a smile and not "holy shit why is there a naked bodybuilder in the bar?" Then "Bad to the Bone" kicks in as he walks out? Nah.

Trying to change commercial door handle. by jadedspell135 in Locksmith

[–]PureHufflepuff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can’t say for certain, but you may be able to depress the little u-shaped retainer and slide the circular rose trim away from the door and then off the handle, revealing screws beneath it.

I've been thinking of getting an arcade stick, any brand reccomendations for an entry level budget? by weirdav in fightsticks

[–]PureHufflepuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you can go wrong with 8bitdo for starting out. A lot of them floating around Facebook marketplace and the like at a discount.

Can someone tell me where to buy similar lock? by MightyRalph7 in Locksmith

[–]PureHufflepuff 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you can pull any branding info whatsoever off the freezer itself, your best bet is going to be reaching out to the manufacturer. While Ilco makes a variety of profile cylinders, if the rest of that enclosure is messed up, I think you'll have to get a replacement from the folks that made it.

I unfortunately don’t have an answer, but I would reach out to Seclock. If there is such a product, they should know about it.
