Having problems locking and unlocking our exodus roofbox and can only think of a locksmith to help. Have done all the usual YouTube type suggestions with nothing conclusive.I think it's a halfords box originally from UK. Probably classed as pretty old now. It may need a new lock and not sure about getting one here. Can anyone recommend a locksmith or handyman who may be able to help. Thanks

May sound silly but have you tried cleaning the lock out ? Its common that sand gets in it,  and gets hard to lock and unlock, happened to us on our gate, blew the sand out and it worked, good luck either way

Thanks Paulh63 I should have said the YouTube help all suggested wd40 and cleaning lock out.others suggested silicon spray. I have no idea how to get the lock out of a roofbox. I only have the key to open and close it. I will ask at our ferreteria if they of know of anyone who can help as they are very helpful here on the Urbanisation. Thanks for the idea.
