Original Door Lock


Installation

...

We could fiberglass the hole  or add a plate to the front. Since the boler has yet to be painted, I am leaning towards fiberglass.


And the rest....

Problem Areas

The inside plate doesn't sit perfectly against the beveled curved of the door near the latch. 

The inside handle seems a bit wobbly. Will need strengthen the door around the door lock hole such that it doesn't bend in when tightened.

The plate that goes around the latch does not sit nicely and prevents proper closure. Currently this has been removed.

Enhancements

Reduced Buzzer Volume

The buzzer sound out of the box is pretty loud. To fix, I cit the copper trace and jumpered the connection with a 10K resister to reduce the volume.

Fiberglass Work

In order to have a nicer looking lock installation, I removed the door and fiberglassed the hole on the front of the door and added fiberglass to the inside to make the lock sit flush.

Moved Hinges

In order to get the hinges not to hit the belly band, I moved the hinges to 1/3 the height of the door. 

The door measured 64 1/2" which put the hinges at 21 1/2" and 43".
