Michael Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Does anyone have any of these in stock or know a wholesaler who has stock please. A local school has just had new lockers and these are going like hot cakes. I've just cleaned out SKS and they cant get anymore for 2weeks if I order now, but I don't know how many more I may need if any.I've got about 15 left but may need 30 or so at short notice. Sale or return would be great.... Many thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironplanet uk900 Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Sorry Michael, I've never seen these, but it might be worth giving Davenport Burgess a call Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perplexus Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 They're here http://www.securikey.co.uk/_data/Securi ... e_List.pdf or here http://www.focusdiy.co.uk/icat/c261501 and there's a lot of them on eBay, although these are mostly in the USA, but may be worth considering!

Michael Posted February 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 cheers perplexus Focus are selling them retail at the same price as I get them from SKS so won't bother , I'll just send them up the road to Focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Since the entire school seem to be coming to you for them, why don't you go to Focus and buy a load and sell them for what you paid for them? At least this way YOU become the place EVERY one in the school recognises as the place to get them, and this new generation of customers becomes used to using your shop and if you haven't sold what you brought after 30 days you can always return them! I did this with mortice locks for a holiday camp, couldn't keep up with demand from my supplier so I went to the local DIY store, Keep the customer and all the follow on business that came from them.

Hugh-Candoit (ENG) Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Now there's a man with his head screwed on the right way, good business sense Batman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Good idea Lee , Thanks I'm not supplying the whole school just trying to sell as many as possible. The other 7 or 8 shops in town that are selling these or similar sized padlocks are all sold out so thought I might use the forum to try and gain an advantage and get some more stock to sell. 25 padlocks from SKS turned up at 3.00pm Wednesday and were gone by 4.00pm Thursday!!!!!!!!!

derek Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 contact the school direct & ask how many lockers they have & offer a deal for a job lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted February 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 The school decided to give children a letter saying lockers were coming the day they broke up for half term so the first I knew about it was when everyone started asking for them. The lockers came with padlocks but the school refused them,just left it up to parents to sort out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
