Replacing a doorknob that was missing half of the door knob (1 of the two
sides). the door is closed, and the strike blot is engaged. by twisting
the one knob, it cant move or catch the latch properly, and by taking it
off completely with the trim, leaves me with a bolt that
is stuck. since the door is closed and cannot open, i cannot remove the
two screws to undo the blot lock, i can only access it from inside the
hole...how do i get this bolt out from the inside, or enough to get it
to retract so i can open the door?


There is a thread on 23 Mar 09, 1:52 AM, that sounds a lot like your
problem. Just thought that you could read through that for additonal hints
on fixes.
Good Luck!
