Members Geoff Posted July 31, 2009 Members Report Posted July 31, 2009 Can someone please point me in the direction of a supplier of replacement lock & hasp for a hard leather briefcase. The preference would be brass with a combination lock. It is a repair for a close friend, so I don't want to fail on this. Thanks, Geoff Quote

Members Kevin Posted August 4, 2009 Members Report Posted August 4, 2009 You may also need a spacer under the lock to bring it up to the height of the hasp because the replacement lock may not be as thick as the original. At least that's the experience I've had with some old Brooks Bros. cases. Kevin Quote

I emailed Ohio but got no response - may be they will not ship to UK!! Their website has no prices Quote
