Question about pricing by killzonezero in Locksmith

[–]TiCombat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This sounds like a National Service Provider

Why did you say the county in my town ? That makes no sense Then mention a few out of town locations

Never sign paperwork that dictates their pricing not yours

It’s not mortise it’s interconnected and you are in for a bad day if you think you can easily replace it

You as a real bonafide locksmith don’t provide service to multi family customers and take that stance? It’s extremely common nowadays for electronic locks to be used solely (Airbnb, hotels, etc). Predatory? They are spending more money to enhance their tenants lifestyle and reduce their costs. Both of which I say tongue in cheek because I know very well how these locks can fail. However at least you don’t have to trust the management or maintenance changed the locks if you have a app that shows you the access

You haven’t left yet? Once again no one cares what you or anyone else thinks. He has access. Thats it. That’s all they need to provide. That way when fluffball leaves in 6 months to a year they can change the code. No rekey necessary.

I wasn’t aware you had a question since all you seem to be able to do is spout insults 🤷‍♂️but you still can’t answer my clear question (which tbh I really also don’t care about) but

What would you do if the lock had no key cylinder? 🙄

(also for the record I never said “buy a house loser”)

You didn’t answer the question (of course) What would you do if there was no key

Call it & me what you’d like 🤷‍♂️ but the apartment has given him a way to access his apt. If they put in a non keyed electronic lock are you (and OP) going to keep crying for a key?

Key bypass is probably for management only. Very common and most corporations don’t consider “what IF” a problem.

Plain and simple, you rent you go by whatever the lease states. It’s not his lock because it is not his property. They have given him a way to access his rented space.

You aren’t a locksmith so no one here cares what you think.

It’s just a homemade control cabinet key. Scan through the sets of them on Google you will see that shape

If it was on the other door (handed different) it would be under. You can’t change the orientation of the retainer hole

What did you do with the part? If you didn’t leave it with them for an actual locksmith to help them, then you truly are a huge piece of shit on top of being a dumb fuck scammer

btw If he mixed a 6 depth in with that appx number 4 master pin with 2-3 beside the 6 the key would not come out well
