Hello everyone,
I would like to change my door cylinder since I suspect someone has a copy of the key which was left by former tenant (Yes I know, stupid idea. I should have changed it long ago).
Well I tried to remove the cylinder in order to measure and order a more robust one like this one but unfortunately I can't get it out. There is no cylinder screw on the lock panel which should hold the cylinder in place. I have watched many YouTube videos but I can't get a similar model to my door as there are external screws on each side of the cylinder, and even after removing them I can't move it.
I have taken a few photos so that if someone knows how I can fix this, to kindly share the steps before I give up and hire someone for the job.
The current installed cylinder as per my keys is an EUROSPEC MP10 which I presume should be held by a middle fix screw but it's not there (apologies for the explanation, please check the photos). I'll really appreciate your insights.
Many thanks,
Joe
