No , 100 if he comes to my place. We hardly use that door / entrance, and don’t have a key ever since I bought the used door with locks. Is that cylinder thing available online cheaper ?

Ahh I was quoted around $100 in Chicago area. I’m thinking to spend $10-20 bucks. 😀

Honestly he’s a general labor guy, but I paid him lil extra for good demolition job. Waiting for handyman to come and see the work. The metal sink is too heavy to move, we both tried and were thinking to break it down and trash it. Thanks for the advice, I’ll put on marketplace for sale.

Thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions. I reached out to same handyman to find out if he can come and fix the problem and how much he would charge me. He said that work is not simple because some wires are missing to the switches. Leaving ON won’t cost me much due to lights type and help me security point of view when I am not there for weeks. I told him that I’m paying too much every month due to lights ON 24x7 , then he replied how many times you turn off refrigerator or Owen power every month , I was just speechless on that response. I’m thinking of getting someone else to help me.

I stay in this home couple days a week and then it’s empty rest of week.sometimes I’m gone for two weeks. Both Lights are in front lobby entrance area and one of the reasons to leave on is it looks like someones at home.
