Door deadlatch sticks open
Jimmy,
If taking it apart and cleaning doesn't work, you may be able to just
replace the latch internals.
One of my exterior doors wouldn't close unless I turned the knob.
Cleaning and lubricating didn't help, so for $10 I replaced the
internals and all is fine. Look in the door knob section of your local
big-box store.
