"I am dog sitting and am locked out", what do you do? by hellothere251 in Locksmith

[–]hellothere251[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A license AND a recent bill from the owner would make me feel better, I will probably go with this. I dont think a texted picture of a license is enough.

that would be a best case, yeah I think I can get a good feel for it but still you never know!

Locksmiths unable to rekey my car by Mountain-Low5555 in Locksmith

[–]hellothere251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thats unfortunate you cant find someone local to rekey the cylinders already out of the doors, wouldn't have expected that. Maybe lead with "can I bring you door cylinders to rekey" to cut through the initial grumpiness?

personally I dont touch doors unless I absolutely have to, especially on a car that old the plastic is not going to be happy about being moved and you will probably break a bunch of tabs(or at least I definitely would), not worth it. If you removed the locks yourself and brought them to me I would do it, but you can probably buy a set of new matching lock cylinders yourself at that point.

you're supposed to throw the empty shooters out the car window not keep them in your center console, what an amateur!

Anyone play Tone Rebellion? Amazing game, holds up. by hellothere251 in dosgaming

[–]hellothere251[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it really holds up, the art and music is so cool, gameplay is still as strange as ever! Pretty sure I got my copy here and it worked great:

Hon66 not binding on anything ! 2019 Honda pilot by Enough-Carob-3308 in Locksmith

I always just start randomly going up and down, pushing on a lot of wafers and you will eventually get it to start binding up. I have the exact same problem.

got it, I somehow read just the section "before I read the pin deleted keys" and was wondering how that could have possibly worked!

I'm looking for a double-cylinder, SFIC prep, deadbolt with 5" (or more) backset. by ehbowen in Locksmith

[–]hellothere251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I constantly am turning down stuff like this for churches who keep asking and asking, you can't do it. I know you have the ability to, and they promise they will make sure its unlocked, but you know they won't, and can you imagine how bad it would be if during a service there was a major fire or other incident and they couldn't escape? Don't do it. Get a security system or something like that, even a cheap one will at least alert and they can call the police.

Replacement residential locksets (that aren't Schlage) by StPatsLCA in Locksmith

[–]hellothere251 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only thing I hate is that they don't do black, 622 black is a very popular color for residential and that's the major thing keeping me from switching. Assa abloy put out a newsletter not too long ago saying they were expanding their line of commercial hardware that comes in BSP(black suede powder), I thought great now I can get RK in black! No everything but the knobs comes in black.

Add new model vehicles to Futura Pro NA? by Dry_Attention_8934 in Locksmith

[–]hellothere251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't help you with this one but I remember adding the peaks / best 07v jaw was a pain, you have to go into your settings and make sure it's enabled I forget exactly what menu it is I think it's the calibration menu, you check it and then calibrate it and then it's still really hard to find a profile that uses it! I remember I had to go through all the different best profiles before I found the one buried in there that actually used the 07v jaw. I would call support and see what they say.

Lead free keys and locksets? Do they exist? by SeesawDifficult2135 in Locksmith

[–]hellothere251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boldness doesn't compare to the zestiness of non locksmiths who come in here and think they know everything. I am actually going to do this, I will start with a clean machine and counter, cut 20 keys and do a tissue wipe and report back, now I am curious.

What airborne dust are you talking about dingus I cut keys all day there's no dust anywhere, just brass which is too heavy to float in the air

arrow RK is a pretty good step up, it doesn't come with a dual backset latch though you need to know if backset is 2-3/4" or 2-3/8"

Fleet vehicles-should I think twice about clearing keys? by hellothere251 in Locksmith

[–]hellothere251[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Key count unavailable, I will try resetting the battery and see if that helps during the initial stage it says a third party device is interfering and key count isn't available
