🔐 Schlage Deadbolts in montreal – Bolt Jamming Issue (2-3/4” Backset) 🔐
We’ve recently encountered an issue with Schlage deadbolts that’s worth sharing.
When the deadbolt is set to the extended backset of 70 mm (2-3/4”), the bolt may travel deeper than designed, causing it to bind and become jammed inside the lock body.
⚠️ What happens:
-
Bolt extends too far
-
Bolt does not retract smoothly
-
Deadbolt can get stuck
-
Door may not lock or unlock properly
Not to worry:
-
Schlage is a reputable company with excellent support
-
Contact them for warranty service and make sure you have your receipt on hand
-

After that, you can call us for professional installation
✅ Proper diagnosis and adjustment are critical to prevent damage or failure. If your deadbolt feels tight, sticks, or doesn’t retract smoothly — do not force it.
