Replace the door if the lockset is broken
broken, door, lockset July 30th, 2009One of our office door lock has been broken for ages… ages like 3 years?… We have informed and reminded the building management about it many times.
The reason they can’t fix the lock is ‘the existing lock is no longer available in the market’… if a new lockset is installed on the existing door, it will leave a big hole on it and they have to patch the bigger holes which will make the door ugly.
So what is the solution?… well, the solution is to replace the door… 😮
broken door lockset = replace door leaf…??? how sweet…
But to replace the door too, will take ages… The door is not that sophisticated… it is not even a custom door… it is not a Naples Fl custom doors… it is just a normal and simple door made of plywood… it is not made from hard wood or metal… come on, I’m sure you can get this door at any hardware shop without any problem… maybe you can even find it at the hardware shop behind my house…
Anyway, at last they fixed the whole problem by replacing the door leaf and install a new lockset… but the new door leaf looks expensive compared to the door next to it… now, should I ask them to replace the other door too so that the office environment looks balanced… it looks so unbalanced now… by just looking at the two doors you should be able to tell already…

Semi solid or really solid door?

Also, if possible, put grill outside, and another lock (deadbolt) on the door.

… solid but not very solid or fire proof… 😛
emm… grill is not necessary coz the door is inside… inside from the main door 😀

Marc Jacobsista ei ole kokemusta, mutta Name It:n vaatteet ei kyllä ole ainakaan meillä olleet kovin lautkakaida. Paitsi toppatakki, jonka ostin joskus sieltä tytölle. Kaikista housuista on irronneet napit hetkessä, vaikka muuten housut olisikin kestäneet. Ei tee mieli ostaa sieltä uudestaan.Ja minä en edes rumpukuivaa.
