The bedroom door locks may malfunction or need to be replaced for various reasons. Here is a detailed tutorial on dismantling the bedroom door lock:
Preparation tools: screwdriver, nail, hammer. Ensure that all tools are in convenient access.
There are many types of door locks, but most bedroom door locks have two main screws located on the inner side of the door lock. These screws are usually hidden, so you may need to move the decorative cover of the door lock to see them.
Use a suitable screwdriver to unscrew the two screws. Remember, tighten it on the right and loosen it on the left. Apply some force and gently unscrew the screw.
Once the screw is unscrewed, the door handle should be easily removed from the door. If there is any resistance, it may be because there are other components that need to be removed, or the door handle may get stuck due to long-term use. If you encounter difficulties, you can gently tap with a rubber pen to help loosen it.
The lock core is the part located in the door handle hole, while the striking plate is the part located on the door frame. To remove the lock, you need to find and unscrew the screw from the edge of the door, and then gently pull out the lock. For the striking board, you need to unscrew the screws on it and gently pull it out.
At this point, you have successfully removed the door lock. Now is a good time to clean and inspect. Ensure that there are no residual fragments, damage or signs of wear on the holes of the door and door frame. If you plan to install a new door lock, make sure that the new door lock matches the size of the original door lock
