Door Jamb rattles

[tfarhood]

I use 2 or 3 wraps of black electrical tape. It will last a while, depending how often you open and close your doors. The bolt could stand to have a larger diameter though. I had a black cloth tape once that lasted all summer last year with one application, but I haven't been able to find a new roll at the store yet. Wrap the electrical tape so that the door closes a little tight. Then open and close the door 3 or 4 times and it will seat in nicely and stop rattling. It is a quick, easy, cheap fix, so I haven't worried about any other methods. If you find a better way, let me know. I know others have tried weather stripping around the entire door edge, but it just looks bad.
