strike is the main component used for door alignment.
If deadbolt does not fully extend, consider increasing depth
of deadbolt strike pocket in frame.
To adjust Knob/Lever/Handleset strike plate:
1. Remove plate from door frame with a manual screwdriver.
(Using an electric driver may strip screw heads or enlarge
