In January, or so, I added to my "To-do list" that I needed to repair my door that was loose enough that wind would blow it open. The latch just wasn't long enough. In the meantime, I reinforced it from the inside so that the door would not open at all, for security.
Now, here in May, I've observed that it works just fine. It locks solid. T'ain't broke! %-)
One of my ideas is to put a piece of cork (sheeting) under the strike plate, or maybe something a little more substantial. Anything I can do that will allow me to build it up now, while still being able to close the door ought to be a step in the right direction, I think.
Obviously, this is not a "world-beater" problem, and I have mentioned two strategies that may help deal with it. I am just sharing it because it has an element of *humor* to it. %-). If anyone has anything to add, I'll listen of course.
In other news, I finished replacing the fan in my heat-pump. I inserted the fuse and am letting the crankcase heater run for a while before I try it out. I needed to extend/splice all of the wires from the motor. I bought a crimper pliers, and butt spliced the wires, coated the connections with Liquid (Black) Tape, and put shrink tubing over that. That ought to take case of those connections, huh? I mean, you wouldn't expect less from me, would you? ; )
