Troubleshooting
Handle feels loose or wobbly.
Ensure the grub screws securing the handle to the spindle are fully tightened. Check that the back-to-back bolts are also secure.
The lock does not engage properly.
Verify that the spindle is correctly inserted into the lock mechanism and that the thumb turn operates smoothly. Adjust the keep on the door frame if it's misaligned.
Door is difficult to close or open.
Check for any obstructions. Ensure the spindle is straight and not binding within the lock. The door hinges may also need adjustment.
