    Door locks

    How do I get the lock barrels out of the handles on my 450? One of them doesn't work and feels solid so needs freeing up but generally I thought I would get the chrome redone and surely the lock barrels shouldn't go in the plating bath?

    Banham door locks

    Hi Are Banham door locks as good as their reputation suggests and are there other brands that should be considered also? I like the idea that getting spare keys cut is not as easy as popping along to the local key cutters. Thanks Tan
