That's what you get when you let the chippies install your locks.

No idea what you mean by chippies.

Advice: Never google a word that sounds like English slang. It doesn't normally turn out well.

Chippies is just what we (locksmiths) call builders when they do a terrible job of installing a lock. (which happens every time they install a lock)
I have no idea where the term came from originally.
