Good idea but can’t really see the extra messing around worth doing as I’d more than likely replace the lock if my last option is drilling as I won’t need to the lock to be usable afterwards and replaced
In the UK we do warrant work where the owner of the property needs to be able to access their property with their own keys. This way is an option to leave the lock working.
Just a quick one we have a union lock which someone has decided to jam some wood in with superglue on any ideas how I can get this open tried everything
