I have this patio door. My locking action failed and was the result of screws that loosened. To fix it I had to remove the handles, lock lever and retaining screws, then push out two pins. I removed the assembly from the door by slightly spreading the vinyl with a knife and slipping it out. Once out I noticed the four small screws which two were loose and this allowed the mechanism to malfunction. Just took my time and reassembled then used locktight on the screws so it would not happen again. Working great now.
I have a question for you, the balcony door that you show in the video is very similar to the one I have, but mine is already broken so I want to buy a similar one but I already looked for them at Home Depot, menards and lowes and nobody has that one type of handle so I wanted to know if you know of a specific store where I can buy that type of handle.
What if the door is locked closed after replacing it. We just got a new lock just like that one, got it put on our apartment door. Locked it and now we cannot open it
Thanks for explaining about the keeper bit. I was about to call out a locksmith!

Fantastic you helped me fix my door lock. thank you
What is the make or model of this lock, I need to replace on my sliding door. Thanks in advance
what do you do when the door locks you out? the lock slips from being all the way up to midway down.
In the first minute, you mentioned if the reveals don't line up you need to adjust that. How do you adjust the reveals?
There are screws on the bottom and on the top if you just them in or out adjust the levels of the rollers on the bottom and that’ll help you fix it

What about when the lock is super hard to lock and unlock
Thank you!
