Loose deadbolt bezel
I have a Stanley, French door with an Arrow (?!) lockset and deadbolt. The
deadbolt (DB) is loose and the bezel will turn but not tighten. On the interior side of the DB are two steel pins which are below the level of the brass colored bezel. I tried prying the interior side bezel as well as turning but nothing has changed. Are any of you familiar with this construction and how to correct it? The last time this happened I called a locksmith who repaired it while I was away. It can't be that hard but I'm lost. As always, TIA! Chuck |

A #1 Phillips can then be inserted in the holes to snug up the screws. -- Roger Shoaf If you are not part of the solution, you are not dissolved in the solvent. |

Put one on some website and post the link or find a good picture already on the web. Joy |
