Hiya,
I have two built-in wardrobes to which I have no keys. Added to that part of the locking system is missing. I've checked several DIY stores and websites but I unable to find a similar locking system. It's probably something very simple but I'm grade -1 at DIY. Can you help?
Thanks,

Chances of finding 'spare parts' for that system are remote.
