Re: [A/S] Deadbolt Installation: Lori



Thanks so much for that info Lori.
I did not think of that.
It makes sense that putting a deadbolt in will warp the door.
I am a welder and know that even if you weld up the hole later it will
not fix a warped door because that will not fix metal warped.
I was a bit worried about the door coming open in transit.
I guess I will just put a device in the door handle to prevent this. I
did see a device one could make to stick in the handle in Trailer Life a
few years ago.
I might also try a surface mount deadbolt if I can find a way to mount it
so it will fit with the screen door fastened to the door.
Thanks again for your tip.
Mike
