Perfect timing...just moved into our home and looking to add some more security around the house and the patio door had me stumped. Now I know what I need..tks!!
@@YourReviewChannel thought so. I miss New York soooooo much :) I actually haven't seen any other NY people do DIY videos. Your video was really good and definitely has me feeling more confident than before watching it. Thank you, Laine.
When the lock was put in the hole was drilled in the wrong place. Can I expand the hole so the lock will fit or does the whole strip have to be replaced?
Are the Anderson doors solid on the inside? Because the doorwall I have already has a hole down by the bottom and its hollow so I'm not sure how the screws would secure the lock
Hello, great video but I seem to run into 2 issues. Our patio door track has a big raised ridge that runs down the center of the track. And, there is already a screw where the unit is to mount to the end of the door. The patio door is likely from 1995. Are these issues deal breakers to use this foot lock or are there workarounds?
Nice job - Interesting that the directions show to REMOVE the (sliding) door prior to drilling the locking hole for the "pin". Andersen assumes most drill chuck's will be too clunky/large to get a perpendicular hole w/ the door in the way...

@@sassenachsjourney2785 You are welcome
Now this is funny!!! Pry the door as of that thing isn’t even there..LOL!!
Thanks for the posting!
What size bit did you use for the bottom?
3/8 sorry I left that out

Thank you for your help, can you also put another one up to double secure?
Thanks

What drill bite size did you use?

I am not sure it should be solid do you have to test it
Wont this interfere with adjustment of the height rollers?
Not at all, it sits away from the door and adjust on its own not an issue
Next time, drill pilot holes. Will make the job much easier.
Thanks for the advice
What size drill bit did you use. Thank you
3/8
Is there a risk that you will break the glass?
Not at all as long as you use the screws that are included in the kit you should be fine. It’s designed for the door.
The “whatsoever” man ! 😁
Do you have something for two slide doors that opens apart and the lock in the center,also for Windows. Thanks
I will look into that
Mine is a fiberglass or plastic sliding glass door. The screws aren’t exactly tight. What can I do or use to make them more secure?
It’s fiberglass with wood underneath just tighten it up
@@YourReviewChannel the door is fiberglass. Once I screwed the lock into the door the screws are loose - I can wiggle the lock.
Correction, it’s a vinyl sliding glass door. The door frame is hallow, so the screws wiggle.
can this be used on metal doors
Yes definitely
My patio sliding door has white hard plastic like material on the bottom with a metal rod down the middle, wondering if it would work on my door.
It should, is it an Anderson window?
Okay where do you go get that from cuz I need one for my patio door
There is a link in the discretion box below the video. If you can’t find it PLMK
I got my drill bit too stuck in my gun and it won’t come out😢

If you look at my video I also have a ridge in the center of the track, It should work? Just drill into the ridge nearest to you
Great video! I have a foot lock that wont catch, spring is still springy, has just stopped catching to lock. How can I fix it? Thanks!
Interesting. Did you try to push it really hard down with your foot? If that doesn’t work it’s probably the latch mechanism is defective
How do you stop the non sliding door from being moved
I don’t understand the question
Nice job - Interesting that the directions show to REMOVE the (sliding) door prior to drilling the locking hole for the "pin". Andersen assumes most drill chuck's will be too clunky/large to get a perpendicular hole w/ the door in the way...
Thank you for watching my videos
Could this be used on top instead? Thanks
Yes definitely
What size drill bit did you use, if you don’t mind me asking? Thanks for the info.

@@YourReviewChannel Why won't my lock slide down into the locked position? Tried WD-40 but it is locked in the "open" position.
@@MrDurham1968 make sure it is on the unlock position. then you should be able to lock it properly
@@YourReviewChannel Thank you. Will do.
but if you lift the door this not gonna hold it
Yes, they need to move the door out of the jam to remove the door. This stops that
I put One on Top and, one on Bottom. Problem Solved..!!!!
I’m falling asleep watching this video. He talks so much and repeats himself a lot.
You can still lift the door out.
No you can not
Most decent sliding doors today are made so that they cannot be lifted or pried-up out of their tracks.
Thanks for the information
DO NOT brush the shavings away with your finger…
Yes use a vacuum
