Reinforcing night latch
Not sure of the correct terminology here, but I'm referring to a night latch
lock http://www.screwfix.com/prods/42344/...y-60mm-Backset Guess most people would call it a Yale lock. Anywho. What I'm after is a purpose made steel reinforcement strip that goes over the striker plate & is screwed into the door frame. The idea is to stop the door being forced, the striker plate usually only being held by three screws. Someone told me they are called 'London Plates' but Google only returns china & stuff. Anyone know what the correct name is? -- Dave - The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk |
