Door Locks
Posted: Wed Oct 11, 2006 3:35 pm
This is my second mobile home, and the second time I've come across this nuisance.
I want to replace the door locks (doorknobs) and add a deadbolt on my doors. But the knobs are placed further toward the center of the door than on regular houses. If I go to my local hardware store to get locks, none of them have a bolt long enough to directly replace the knob. Plus, the deadbolt wouldn't line up.
Without going to a specialty store, is there anything I can do?
