Measurements of the deadbolt

I need to know the measurement of how far the 40-155 deadbolt sticks out from the door facing in. I have a doorknob on my inside door and want to know if the deadbolt will fit on my storm without hitting the doorknob.

The inside thumb turn sticks out 1 1/4" toward the inside. If this is too close to your inside door try installing it above or below your inside door handle and hardware.

Do you make a deadbolt that sticks out less than 1 1/4" from the storm door?

Sorry, we do not have one that sticks out less than 1-1/4". I do not believe any one would have it because you need the height for the mechanism of the deadbolt and thumb turn.

What are the dimensons of the part of the dead bolt on the inside of the door? The storm door that I have is a full glass door with a narrow frame.

The deadbolt of the 40-155 lock set is 1-1/4" wide. I included a picture of the deadbolt with measurements. Let me know if you need anymore measurements.
