How to make acoustic steel door?

[@Arachnaphobe]

Why are you still drilling when the door is open?

[@Jahwigga]

At least point out where to put the drill bit

[@mrapma]

So, If I lost original key on Schlage lock.. I can drill out cylinder, and buy a replacement cylinder with new keys to match?
Is this cheaper than buying a new Schlage lockset from Home Depot or Lowe's? Where do I buy the replacement cylinder. How do I know it will match original door lock set?

[@mitchellacoustical3119]

What I did is go to a locksmith in my town, tell them what I have and then they get me the cylinder. I think it costs like $8-12.

You’re drilling through the keyhole, right?

[@mitchellacoustical3119]

Yes

[@JesperWidell]

Plz do that again but say on a real lock cylinder (Dorma DSC sec 7-pin) and not what ever piece of butter you were drilling in the video.

[@mitchellacoustical3119]

These are the common locks we use.

Mitchell Acoustical: You need better illustration of what is happening inside the lock and where exactly to drill to achieve what is needed.

[@andytane4406]

I agree. This is great information, but the explanation of the whole process would be better illustrated with some closeups, and a well planned out script. I had a hard time understanding why stepping drill sizes would make a difference to the final result. I'm looking forward to future Mitchell Acoustical videos.

I guess he didn't know how to pick locks
