Brass Door Locks

[KaMoS]

Does anyone know someone who can repair or work on brass door handles and locks? My patio doors have brass handles and locks, and this one is broken. Currently using a plyers to open and close it, not ideal. Pics below:

1. Your garden looks massive, wtf? Do you you live in a country club?.
2. Looks like that this just takes a standard handle despite the odd mechanism (judging by the one to the right) is the mechanism itself broken? Have you opened it up? These things often ridiculously simple.

3. Looks like you have something called a Cremone bolt on those doors, it's a French design. This is what it looks like inside: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crémone?oldformat=true\ ...mad simple go get your toolbox.

Cheaper fixing option and it's fun.

Make a silicone mould of one the working handles and buy some 2 part resin. Make a resin copy and spray-paint it to match the colour, you could embed that square/hex bar that actuates the handle inside the resin for strength.

Good luck.

Thanks for the responses all. Some good advice.

ALSO, thanks for the compliments on the garden, all thanks to my amazing gardener. If you're in or close to Bedfordview, he has days available.
