Why doorjambs are breaking

This real life photo shows strike plates with 3-1/2 screws. Note how that the jamb is splitting each screw hole in half and will split the bolt and latch holes in half as well. Drill more holes in the face of the jamb is not a solution. What many people do not realize is that most doorjambs are made up of many pieces of wood glue or finger jointed together usually from soft pine wood. While this may serve the purpose of opening and closing a door it does not provide any security.  Www. kikgard.com Everyone.
