Default Cheap Mangled Doorknob Hosed Up

I should add that the latch is springloaded, keeping it extended.
Thanks for the help.


I realize it is spring loaded, but it will not be when you remove the spring
from the backside.

The cause of this problem is that the internal parts in the latch break,
(Usually due to improper installation, causing undue stress on things.) and
jam up.

they come up with this striped stuff.
