Following on from my earlier thread I've hopefully got a mate sending me
some 1.2mm thick cutoff discs for my angle grinder soon so I can cut
through the jammed mortice. After that am I likely to be able to find an
identical sized lock to replace this 25 y/o one of unknown origin or is
more carpentry likely to be needed? I have no idea if locks have some
sort of standardised range of sizes or if every manufacturer does their
own thing.

It would be ideal to get one that just slots straight back into the same
hole in the door.


It's probably a standard size. What brand is it?


If I could get it out I could maybe tell you but at present "unknown origin"
is my best guess.
