My builder who is now in Israel has given my solicitor the incorrect keys and can't provide the correct keys for our villa. We urgently need a locksmith to change the locks on the villa - as advised by solicitor.



As I am in the UK at moment I need ti be able to communicate via email to said locksmith.



Thanks

and trust that they won't keep a copy of the keys, i.e. someone with a shop rather than a low charging handyman? Just a thought.

I am not in Cyprus for another 2 weeks and want the property opened up before then. But looking at the replys I will probably end up drilling the locks like you say.



Thanks

Darren,



Email me, I am willing to maybe change your main lock for you so you have access then you could do any other locks when you arrive. Whereabouts in Esentepe do you live, I live near to Tatlisu.

Dear Darren,



May İ suggest that you purchase your new 'barrels' in the Uk from a MLA approved locksmith or GAI registered Architectural Ironmonger. Ask for a registered restricted key section Euro-profile cylinder(s).



95% of all cylinders sold locally are on an open profile and can be duplicated easily as many shops hold the corresponding blanks.



If you would like me to recommend anybody in the UK let me know which area you reside in and i will try to oblige.



Hope this helps.
