Many latch issues come from mismatched door thickness, worn cam engagement, or an incorrect cutout rather than the lock cylinder itself.

Check Door Thickness: The latch must be deep enough to pass through the door and allow the cam to engage correctly.
Check Cutout Fit: Compare your existing latch opening to the replacement latch body before ordering.
Check Cam Clearance: Make sure the latch can rotate and catch the frame or striker area without binding.
