Entry door lock replacement

Ok, thanks for your replies, Dave

Order one from Amazon. Worked for me.

Or you could go whole hog and replace the door lock with one from Fastec.

And then you can replace all your outside slam baggage doors with a lock cylinder that is keyed the same as your door lock.

Just order the same code for the cam locks as your door lock.

I know it would be expensive, but I wonder about taking a FIC door lock apart, 3D scanning it or just inputting the precise measurements of everything into a CAD program, then having a local company that does Iconel metal sintering "print" out a lock. The advantage of this would be that it would be extremely durable, but I'm sure this would be extremely pricy.

Of course, I wonder if it would be possible to go back to the pre-2000s and go back to having a residential deadbolt or even a surface mounted night latch. This wouldn't look pretty, but it would work, year after year.

We purchased one of these and haven't had any issues so far.

I would rather not use another FIC lock, first one failed and with no customer service, would rather not do business with them anyway.
