Im not sure if this is the correct term for the part I am talking about, it is the part that goes in and out when you operate the door handle. When I open the door the bit that I call the "striker/latch" on most occasions seem to stick within the mechanism. If I operate the handle a few times it will pop out or if I push it with my finger it generally releases it. My question is does anyone know what is causing this to happen and how I can rectify this annoying problem. Also the two fanlight Windows in my d/g French doors have decided they do not want to open anymore and have become firmly stuck closed. Any advice would be more than welcome to help me fix these problems.
