I am going to try the 1/4" Yale Light as soon as I can get
to it and will let you know how it works. I think it will
be smoother and much better than the wire. I was told IF
you replace with wire, change to WIRE blocks and use
GALVANIZED wire as STAINLESS wire flatens, un-spirals and
won't respiral. Recommend those having problems with wire
consider what Bill says above.
