never received item

Would Not Recommend

I never received this item. FedEx said it was damaged during shipping and was sent back to lowes. I have been charged for it, and Lowes has not sent a replacement or resent the damaged item.

Loosens itself as door is used

Would Not Recommend

The turnbuckle did not come with a lock nut to secure the item. The turnbuckle loosens as Theodosius used and has to be retightened often.
