Hey all:
Not much of a carpenter, but I can follow directions. The front door of my mom's house has always worked perfectly. But my last two visits, the darn door will not latch when I pull it shut.
If I really yank and slam it, the Kwikset thing finally sits in the door frame and holds closed, but, of course, don't want to be doing this forever.
Forgive my technical terms here, but the metal spring-loaded latch thing retracts into the door smoothly and pops back out with catching or other trouble, except for going into the "box-thing" in the door frame.
The weather hasn't been any different than any other of the dozens of years here. Anything I should start with....
