The front door has once of those night latches where you can lock
the inside handle - to stop the door being opened by breaking the

Euro, Yale or some other type?


Not sure of the brand.


So as you say yours is similar, what brand is yours?


Mine is a Chubb, but uses an entirely different type of key. More like a
mortice lock key (but shorter) than the usual night latch 'flat' type.

IIRC, mine was the first night latch that conformed to the standard for a
single lock on a front door, whatever that BS number is. It's several
years old now.

BTW, they have a locksmith in at the moment. ;-)
