Yes or no?
Hi Branden;
If you're going to be near downtown Rochester Weds, Thurs, or Friday
I have an easy job. I managed to lock my back bedroom door and can't
find the keyset. I doubt it would take a professional more than a few
minutes to get open and could pay in cash. I can be flexible
time-wise on those days, but am looking to pay something reasonable
for the job. (The lock is one of the ones which comes in a package
from Home Depot, so my other option is to go get a few packages and
see if any of those keys work. There can't be THAT many combinations.
Please lmk either way if you're interested.
Thanks,
45+ Minute drive to open a interior bedroom door? Efen if I can't pick open the lock most interior doors have molding that doesn't get painted so I can just pop that over slightly with a putty knife and shim the lock. However if the molding is painted, or solid, I'd have to go the picking route. I've yet to take on a Defiant or whatever Home-Depot's brand is, and I hear they have minimal securities.
The only thing I can think of is if I charge him mileage, which with my mom's car is roughly 25 mpg, so a 45 min drive to a place I've never been to open a lock I've never touched, and possibly be asked to rekey or just make a key. I just don't know. And also, from the comment "There can't be that many combinations" I obviously know it's someone who isn't quite up to speed on the process and details of a pin tumbler lock.
