|
|
I lost the key to my apartment and have been using a metal coat hanger to jimmy it open of late. I am moving on Monday.
I believe my landlord must have the other key, but my Director has suggested that he doesn't. Worst Case Scenario: How much would it be to purchase and install a new lock on my door? |

You could get a cheap one installed for about 30k. I had mine changed when I moved in, and it was 70k for a really good one, as well as one of those chain things that aren't chains. |

go to emart/ homeplus buy a door lock and get a screwdriver and do it yourself... sometimes you can just change the lock part.. very easy to do
or go to a place that sells locks and tools they sell it too |

I lost my key once and didn't know the code so the locksmith busted the lock open and replaced it for about 70k won. |
