If you’re tired of tightening and re-tightening door locksets throughout your house, then this simple solution is for you. Loctite® Threadlocker 242™ Blue is an adhesive designed especially for nuts and bolts. It prevents accidental loosening due to use and vibration.
- Lay out several sheets of newspaper to protect the floor under the lockset.
- Remove one of the two screws that connect the front and back of the knob/handle with a screw driver.
- Open Loctite Threadlocker Blue 242 and apply one drop on the threads of the removed screw. Roll the screw so the Loctite Threadlocker adhesive is coated around the threads.
- Using a screwdriver replace the first screw.
- Repeat steps 2-5 with the second screw.
- Your lockset is tightened. Repeat for the other locksets in your house.
