Boring deadbolt in exterior door
I bought a Kwikset powerbolt for my exterior door that wasn't drilled for a deadbolt.
I picked up a Bosch carbon 2 1/8" wood hole drill. The issue is the door seems to be some form on plastic laminate. For sure it isn't metal and for sure it isn't wood. Drilled a small hole as a test with a wood bit and seemed to work fine. Question: What is this door made of and will the wood hole drill work? Thanks. |
