what is wrong with this picture? to a trained eye,
it's obvious the geometry is off. but mine was an
untrained eye; i puzzled over the mystery that had
the best minds in the building stumped as to why
the front door wasn't properly latching no matter
how high they adjusted the closing strength.
i installed one of these years ago and some-
thing wasn't sitting right, so i checked the
installation manual online and
saw the
professionals had done it wrong--it's
the skinny adjustable arm that's
supposed to be perpendicular. so
i fixed that. now, the observant
eye will have by now noticed 3
circles off to the right. that's a
pretty fancy socket set the care-
less locksmith left behind. meager
pay for my time but better than nothing.
