Last night our doorknob was jammed when we got home, not budging for any amount of key-turning, sighing, pleading, shoving, pulling, or stomping around the porch.
Luckily, we came in the back door. Today we called a locksmith and he spent about 45 minutes working on it -- an interior screw had come loose over what he thinks is about sixty years of continuous use, so he had to screw it back in and put it all back together again. No parts, no replacement. :) I asked him if a newer lock would be safer and he said this was a very good solid old one, just to keep it how it is. Yay.
