Seized mortice lock

Nice troll.

Well, just in case this _isn't_ a troll - now you've got the door open it is trivially easy to take the lock out (a couple of screws you can't see when the door is shut, and take one of the handles off). You can then clean it of all the Water Dispersing stuff in that WD40 (see where the name comes from?) and lubricate it properly. Light oil would probably do, but as has been mentioned graphite is better.

Which was that politicians wife who described having sex with her husband as lying down when a wardrobe with the key in the lock fell on you?

Brian

Why? Did he tell you what to do, did he spray the lock with WD40?

No? Then why praise him?
