Re: [SilverStreak] New Stainless Steel Hinges - Deadbolt?



Yeah, the casement window latches on my '79 screen panel door are pretty 
poor. You'd think the SS designers could have done a better job considering 
most of their work quality.
Thanks for reminding me to add a decent latch to my screen panel. I've meant 
to do it for a long time BEFORE my panel gets wasted.

Mine had a well-worn Kwikset on it which has been replaced. I never use the 
original latch even though I replaced it with a new piece (Bargmann 100 or 110 
I think). Will be adding another deadbolt to the screen door cover as the 
latches on ours gave way and we beat the bejesus out of it on the highway before 
being able to stop. I need new hinges, and will have to scour 'round for a 
new set of doors as well.
