  • 1.  case upgrades

    Posted 08-17-2017 05:47 PM
    Hello,
    I have some older built-in wood cases with glass doors that I need upgraded a bit.  I need the fabric on the back replaced and the locks to be upgraded for greater security.  I'm not sure who to call, especially for the locks.  A cabinetmaker/millwork professional? A locksmith?  Does anyone have any suggestions for a direction to go or a specific contact in St. Louis?

    Thanks very much for any assistance,
    Erin

    Hi Erin,

    I'd check with a local theater company that has a large scene shop or prop shop. They're used to dealing with fabric, and would probably be able to do the locks as well. Good luck!

    Best,
    Daniel
