Re: [a/s] Door handles again

[Susi and John Burchard <saluqi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

On my MH there is a little post like that, which after 22 years no longer has a
cover.  It does move a little bit, up and down (slide, not like a toggle switch)
and locks or unlocks the tumbler lock.  Like the buttons in a car door.  I
hardly ever use it so can't remember which way is unlocked.  The up and down
travel is only about a quarter of an inch.  I do have to unlock it occasionally
when the hounds have poked it into the wrong position (they basically know how
to open doors).

When I am inside the MH and don't want to be disturbed, I just throw the
deadbolt, which is actuated by a big fat lever on the door frame, not on the
door.  Deadbolt always closed when driving (a big light on the dash starts
flashing if you don't).
