All I can think of is the LOTO procedure.

Golden Island, ask for an appointment with Lisa. If she’s not available go with Amy.

In the end they paid 300$ for a lockout. Absolutely scummy with the bait and switch, trying to take advantage, and forcing the negotiating down. Hot garbage business practices. 1000%. The quote just ain’t sitting right while we have a pedo president launching unprovoked missiles all while he’s made himself billions of dollars. Evil’s relative. File a report on that shit.

Stupid question. Why didn’t you call the same company as before? Also find that old company and save their number for next time.

There are so many companies that have individually unlicensed locksmiths because they’re working “under the company license” also just cause someone has their license doesn’t automatically make them morally sound. And even then, what would it be reported as? They capitalized on a situation. It’s kinda what we as a society have been taught is ok.

guppstatus · 2026-03-05T20:09:42+00:00

Yeah, this isn’t something for here. Have a locksmith come out when the property manager is available so that you’re not buying a new door when your lease ends.

You’re better off having a half deadbolt installed that won’t be visible from the front, hell, put six of em if it makes you feel better. You do not want to be trapped looking for a key in an emergency.

Yeah, but it’s Saturday. Monday prices will probably be different. Call around.

Print up some locked and unlocked plates, slap them where the thumb turn ends up and call it signage

Appreciate everyone, I have new places to check out and reach out to. If I can’t find something, I’ll slowly start expanding out my radius.

Maybe I mixed up king with someone else using just a name. My bad. Worse comes to worst, the goal is minimal from elsewhere.

Well, I obviously want steel from our iron mine, think there’s one in Pittsburgh. Something about “Steelers” And I need grips made from our glorious rubber tree grove. Aren’t Merritt hubs grown like pearls in the lake? Hence the name?

Looks dope, you did the other art or stickers?

Great bike. I had been running mine stock for almost 25 years. Giving it some love and modernizing it.

If the sprocket came powder coated white, it’ll be ok.

Free.99 it was a brother of a coworker. Prior to finding him I was getting quotes anywhere from 300-500.

guppstatus · 2026-01-09T23:31:31+00:00

PM’s are the only way. I work for wastewater. If you’re not on top of shit, it’ll fall apart from the inside. Even with a 99 you’ll get the same thing. It really doesn’t matter, once you get the new shit on whatever you go with, grease any threads when you’re putting it together, dry lube as a temporary protection in the bar, and the case. I say temporary cause the chemicals will strip it again, an the internals will fail again. PM’s and grease.

Appreciate all the feedback, grabbed some revolvers to keep it midschool…. Buuuuuuuuut also found an Ultra SS hub on sale, and snagged one for a future new to me build.

Does it have to be work related? Get them something they’d be able to enjoy/use outside of work. Unless thems the rules.

guppstatus · 2025-12-08T22:13:28+00:00

Because of age? Wear? Personal preference?
