We've a wardrobe which closes and locks with a key containing all our coats, shoes, camera etc. Now, it would've been smart to make a copy of the key with small children around but alas, too late for that. The key disappeared over 3 months ago and while we thought it was bound to turn up, think at this stage its gone. So, while we could break the lock to get the stuff out, we'll be stuck with a door that won't close properly either so am just wondering if there's such thing as a locksmith that could both open it with a skeleton key and take a mould to make us another key. Anyone ever heard of something like that?
 
Yes, a locksmith would/should be able to open the wardrobe for you no problem. A lot of wardrobes are fitted with a standard cabinet lock and locksmiths keep a range of these keys, we had about 20 of the most frequently asked for in stock. It would be cheaper to leave a deposit with your locksmith and borrow the keys to see which fits and then return the rest for your deposit. That's the way we worked anyways! Will be a LOT cheaper than a call out to open the door.
