[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did it but it was not easy. Absolutely demolished lock. cylinder fell out, pins fell out but still wouldnt come out. kept smashing handle with hammer and finally let go. [b]also broke a couple of drill bits[/b]. making a small pilot hole and then using a bigger drill bit and then using a screwdriver did not work for me at all. took me more than an hour and coming back multiple times. [/quote] Sorry no one warned you about this. But you need drill bits that are designed to drill into metal. Regular drill bits are designed to drill wood and will break. But all of the home improvement stores have drill bits designed for metal, you just have to look on the labeling to find the right ones. Glad you got it done. Hopefully it isn't some sort of custom door knob/lock and it will be easier to deal with when you replace it.[/quote]
