I think I still remember how some of the locks work. Your lock does not look like the one Weiser made or similar design. The picture show a anchor plate for the screws to hold on to the outside knob. Then you have another set of screws or just twist and turn to lock the inside knob to the anchor plate. The picture is not clear or is too small and did not show the inside knob. So, I am guessing there is a interference between the anchor plate and the inside knob.<br /><br />Most American style lock do not use anchor plate. And they are very easy to install.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11255747186103875338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-79385804757258308572010-01-02T20:22:29.220-07:002010-01-02T20:22:29.220-07:00Dave, being mortgage free certainly sounds good. ...Dave, being mortgage free certainly sounds good. It is by far my biggest bill. I think my next biggest bill would have to be my electric bill in the summer. But still, nothing like the mortage.Daizyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08075279944974601962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-24896505224300384152010-01-01T19:48:06.845-07:002010-01-01T19:48:06.845-07:00I recall how nice it was to not have to make any m...I recall how nice it was to not have to make any more monthly mortgage payments after I paid off my mortgage in 1998. Back then, I had my 3 main monthly expenses due at the start of each month - my mortgage, my co-op maintenance charges, and my monthly railroad commutation ticket. In the 9 years leading up to 1998, sometimes the mortgage was the biggest, in other years it was the maintenance. But together, those were the bulk of my bills. Losing the mortgage made it a whole lot easier to budget every month.<br /><br />I look forward to seeing a post from you like that (sans train ticket) by the end of 2010. :)Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05503978839912338538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-22616929765397775022010-01-01T18:07:47.016-07:002010-01-01T18:07:47.016-07:00Thanks Kim A., I am really excited.

It's connected now but not as tight as it should be. I'm sure I did something wrong but at least it works!Daizyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08075279944974601962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-47001543564985817892010-01-01T16:24:45.888-07:002010-01-01T16:24:45.888-07:00I'm not a door expert but will off you all the...I'm not a door expert but will off you all the encouragment I can!
