Weatherproofing a lock or deadbolt
Excellent!
-- Christopher A. Young You can't shout down a troll. You have to starve them. .. "Ralph" wrote in message link.net... : Many, many, years ago, I saw a unique solution to a problem of sand and salt : air getting into a door lock on a beach-front vacation house. : : Owner had taken the lid of a large (1 qt, approx.) jar and cut an opening in : it so that the lid fit between the lock and the door. When he was leaving : for the week, or whatever, he screwed the jar onto the lid, thus covering : the lock. I have always thought that was a slick solution to protect : seldom-used locks. : : Just thought I'd pass this along in case there's someone out there who : hadn't seen or heard of it before. : : |
