When you lock your door
at night you may be surprised to know what you are sending that case harden
solid steel bolt throw into.
Few realize the many different ways
a doorjamb is constructed the photo below is made up of multiple square pieces
of wood glued together to form the jamb. Other methods are finger jointing
where several short sections of wood are glued together and others are solid
wood. Once the door is painted you can not tell which jamb you have. If
all you want is for a door to open and close that all work. But don't
expect the jamb to equal the one inch solid steel deadbolt throw which enters
just 1/2 inch away from the inside of your home. Each hole drilled for the
locks, strike plates and hinges weakens the jamb even more. For security each
must be reinforced. www.kikgard.com .
