Ryan, when I use the keyless on my '94 I have to push on the door to
line up the deadbolt. This is all done blind folded as I cant see or
feel what is going on in the jamb. I think someone replaced the
seal with a too ambitious foam/rubber product. fat seals endup
causing the door operator to slam and place a hard turn on the
lock. One other issue is that the door on my 94 is alumnium and
swells more than the steel frame in the sun. just some things to
consider with your project
