Review on Defender Security 9850 Housing Aluminum by Jojo Howell

I attached this to the sliding door below to hook the fixed door. vinyl doors. The product shows a white latch locking the patio door, but the product latch is chrome plated, not painted white. So it's noticeable. Also, as explained in the supplied fitting instructions and shown in the photo of the item in the box, the 2 screws holding the patio door lock should be installed very close to the edge of the door and not in the middle of the patio. Door. Even when installed on the edge, the latch located in the unit only engages about 1/8 inch into the fixed door. This makes it "weak" and I can see the lock moving when I tested the lock with the sliding door with the lock on. My recommendations to the manufacturer are: 1) Provide a white stud as pictured on the box 2) Make the stud longer to securely secure the fixed door 3) Use the best method for attaching to sliding vinyl doors , since screwing into plastic is not strong.
