Default Re: Door latch

John, Here's the link to what I posted.

I wonder how different the Fordor latch would be?
I have a spare latch in the basement. I'll have to see if it's what Bill needs a picture of.

To remove the door handle in my picture, you must remove the 2 screws on the outside handle, then turn the handle 45*, or 1/8 turn, just as though you were going to open the door, then wiggle it and pull at the same time. Spray some Kroil onto the shaft to help it slide out. I also push in on the latch to take a little pressure off the shaft, as I wiggle and pull on the handle.
