Strike Bolt Adjustment:
• Slowly close the door, observing the latch and strike bolt
alignment. Do not attempt to close the door if the latch
alignment is off. If the latch alignment is correct, close the door
allowing the latch to catch in the first (primary) position only.
• The latch should move to the second position with just a slight
pressure applied to the door. Press on the door to see if there is
any further movement of the door.
• The entry handle should operate with little effort to open the
door. If using an excessive amount of pressure is required, this
indicates the bolt is set too far back.
• Using a wrench, loosen the strike bolt. Make all adjustments in
small increments. Tighten the bolt firmly after making
adjustments.
• Ensure the three screws holding the latch assembly on the door
are tight along with the two on the doorjamb.
Hinges:
• The hinges for the door requires slight lubrication annually, or as
needed, with any high-quality, dry spray lubricant.
Outside Skin:
• To maintain appearance and long service life, the door skin
should be washed and cleaned periodically. Cleaning removes
the accumulation of dust and dirt which can combine with
sunlight and wind to attack exposed surfaces, both chemically
and abrasively.
