I have to fit a new door in my porch and want to know where to put the mortice. Any advice gratefully received. Don't flame me if I have just asked the most stupid question. I have searched and there is conflicting information.
So almost every door I can think of has the mortice lock of a front door into the rail of the door. Is this truly the correct place for it as fitting it involves chopping out a big chunk of the tenon.
The door looks similar to this and is mortice and tenon construction.
