I always put 3 inch screws in the plates, that way the are in the stud and harder to break down.

[@Alexanderbuilds2001]

And that’s why this is the best home diy channel on KZbin Cheers!!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Thanks Bay, drop the mic! Cheers!

[@ytadmin]

Why not use longer screws for the strike plates? Some 3"-4" screws should hit the jack stud and give a much better chance of a standing up against a kick attack on the door. As always, great content. Keep it coming!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

The best defense against someone kicking in your door is the sound of the shotgun cocking. Cheers!

[@jozeph7870]

Hi Jeff. Can you speak to how well these hold up in the cold weather? I have 4 of the Schlage Camelot. The one in the garage broke outright and the one against a non heated 3 season room stops rotating around December-March in Chicago winters.

[@jasonbengel]

I learned the word 'mortise'. This gives me a lot of confidence for replacing a door - thanks, Jeff. One recommendation I learned from a police department is to replace the screws that go in the strike plate (the plates that go into the mortise) is to use 3- or 4-inch screws (not the 1-inch screws they give in the lock kit) so that it goes to the studs. The longer screws make it harder to kick the door in if the strike plates bite into some more wood (or, as you've said in other videos, just in case you have a family of door slammers that also like to push up hard against the doors when they're carrying a load of groceries)... hee hee.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Cheers Jason.! LOL the family of door slammers....is that a reference to another one of my videos?

[@jasonbengel]

@@HomeRenoVisionDIY Yes, it is -- I think it's a reference to a basement video where you show three different methods to put in a pre-framed door ("Good, Best, and super-fast"). As you went through the pros/cons, for one of the methods, you said, "This will work great, unless you live in a family of door slammers." Your list of quotables ("Jeffisms") is increasing, though I don't think I'll wear a t-shirt with 6:30 on it quite yet!

[@CurvedSlightly]

Jeff, dude. I f**kin' love your channel but, I'm having to watch this in secret, the Mrs. says you're costing a fortune! But she does say the house looks sh1t-hot!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Glad to hear it...about the house looking good I mean! Cheers!

[@williamd1732]

It makes me chuckle every time Jeff. I do the same thing. Although, I haven't tried using the tape measure as a hammer yet I don't think. Used to drive my father nuts. He'd say "right tool for the job damnit son". Because those first years I was using his tools mostly, lol. Just reminded me of some good times of DIY with the "Old man", I sure miss him. I'm sure you have these good times with your boys as well. Thanks Jeff!

[@robpet4424]

Cheap things usually don't last .

Hi Robert. $100.00 isn't so cheap that i expect the lock to fall apart. I just would rather spend 100 than 250 is all.

I have installed countless locks and I still learned from this video. I guess the saying "always keep learning" stands true even in simple things.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Isn't that the truth. Always something new to learn out there. I love seeing different approaches to things. increases my toolbox for problem solving. Cheers!

[@kieranbricker3278]

You should have mortised the deadbolt latch to so it matches.

[@ColonelK0rn1]

Jeff, do you ever run any longer screws into the studs on the latch plate of the deadbolt on the door frame? I'm under the impression that there'd be a little bit better security with those longer screws going through more wood. Also, your tip about removing one of the handles is going to save me some grief when I'm installing 12 lever hardware sets in my current renovation this week; that was worth the price of admission alone! BTW, hope you guys take care of that joker who was using your lovely mug while trying to peddle some painting tools on Facebook; I sent y'all an email and Michelle Martin sent me a reply.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Thank you Colonel, we are all over that! Cheers!

Can I install this on a fence gate door? Thank you. I like your channel Diy videos.

[@mostlikelywedoitservices9743]

Different way of doing it. Center hole the screw holes for the plate. screw in screws. Now run razor knife around. It makes it a little cleaner then following a pencil line.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

I will have to share that one next time. Cheers!

[@ramaporiver803]

A lot of things would be different if you pulled out earlier....

[@vraczok]

Another great video. May I suggest using longer screws on the strike plate it helps to slow down or prevent a B&E.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Slowing it down makes no difference. Cocking the shotgun should give you the desired effect however.Cheers!

[@Wordsnwood]

What about putting longer screws in the deadbolt plate to engage the stud? (I do agree with you that if they WANT to get in, they will, but I still like to make the deadbolt as secure as possible.)

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Longer screws are optional. I live in Canada so B and E is not a real concern where I live. I can appreciate the need for safety in some communities however!

[@MickeyM__]

I love your videos but this entire deadbolt is useless when you failed to use screws long enough to hit the studs, your own words where "your only 1/4in from the edge of the wood so run it backwards or it will split every time" so that nice 1/2in or 3/4in dead bolt is only using 1/4 wood to hold that as you said will split every time. a simple fix use 3 inch screws so they bite into something or better yet a dead bolt retainer vs the normal striker which takes 3 or 4 3 inch screws deep into the studs.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

The purpose of the deadbolt is to lock the door in the sealed position. This is not a security device no matter how much people like to think it is. Cheers!

[@ericwhite265]

I would highly suggest using lithium or rechargeable batteries in something like this. The last thing you want is to have your expensive lock stop working because one of the alkaline batteries decided to leak out.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Sounds reasonable. Cheers!

[@jrok96]

"had i pulled out sooner, that never would have happened" (@ 06:30) same thing i said about my first son! lol.

this is not really about the content of this video but you may have an answer. my house has sheet siding with just felt paper between the siding and the studs. I want to put real siding and a real house wrap (i want to use a peal and stick product) and want to know the best way of going about this. I live in Oregon.

[@Guillotines_For_Globalists]

I believe the screws for the deadbolt plate would have increased your security by a bit. More surface are and retention versus that sleeve insert.

[@FantinoMussolini]

Keypads are garbage, easy destructive entry with just a flat head, buy and install a good commercial grade deadbolt instead.

[@andreb.8266]

Very good, the way you show it give the impression it's quite easy, thank you ! As Jason as said 4'' screw will be much better because the strenght of the lock now is only the little 3/4 inch of the frame so, almost nothing. I am not sure about buying the cheapest lock, it's still the entry door of your home.

What about the Wifi enables keyless lock that uses the smartphone to open. Are they reliable?

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Not sure if reliability is the biggest concern. Like with all things mechanical it is always best to have a key on you. For me I like the option to give out a code for other folks to have access without having keys floating around the city. The codes can be changed at any time.

[@Fumoblu]

It is suggested also to get some screws through the door frame into the wall where the deadbolt is to strenghten the hold. Of course you need to ad wood between frame and wall.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

regardless, the sheer strength of those screws will not keep someone form kicking in a door. A properly trained guard dog or a 12 gauge shotgun is more effective.

Top notch video as always, Jefe. Question: Have you ever installed the Defiant motion detector light system? I did my absolute best caulking that thing, and water still somehow got inside and ruined it :(twice): Customer service was not too nice about it, and blamed my poor caulk job. A pro-installation might make for an excellent video - does the farmhouse need motion detection?

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Did the water get in the box or the fixture?

[@davidozog7549]

That's the million dollar question. I would hope it didn't get into the box, and I can't imagine a reasonable scenario where that could have happened (except a bad caulk job). The Defiant guy said the water had to come from behind my caulk line because it's literally impossible to come through the fixture side even when submerged in water. I haven't actually opened it up yet to diagnose though. If you're dying to know, maybe I can prioritize this ;)
