Maintenance
1.
Periodically remove covers and coat mechanisms with a
silicone base lubricant. This is particularly required in corrosive
environments for proper product function.
2.
Check mounting fasteners periodically. Retighten if found
loose. Apply screw locking compound (available at automotive
part stores) or change part fasteners if screws continue to back
out.
3.
Periodic checks (and adjustments) of strikes are required to
compensate for changes in the opening (e.g. door sagging).
