The Millenco Mantis Mechanism is one of the more expensive lock mechanisms to replace and this will definitely be reflected in the final price you pay.  The Millenco Mantis MK1 is the only mechanism that has the unique 117/86PZ measurements that match the door handle. It may be possible to repair these locks but that is at the locksmiths discretion, as sometimes other parts of the lock may fail afterwards.  Many locksmiths feel it's best to supply a new system so they can provide a 12 month warranty.

Stick-on soles are there to provide anti-slip properties for the shoes and also to remedy small tears on soles before the damage gets worse. If you haven’t been to a shoe repair shop before, consider choosing an independant one as they may charge less. Bigger repair companies tend to be more expensive as they have bigger overheads. Nevertheless, there’s no harm in doing research and comparing prices before you decide on a shop.
