Profdant139. Thank goodness we do that - latch both together then close the door. One word though, our screen latch (that little thing in your first pic) was at an angle on our FW. So . . . guess what happened . . . hubby straightened it out . . . big mistake. It was at an angle for a reason. We couldn't get in, but after much jiggling and slipping a wire in, we managed to open without damaging the piece or door. Lesson learned!
Also the angle is set by tightening screws in wide slots. The screws get so they won't tighten even with fatter screws so the angle keeps getting "off" in the slots. This can get to where the screen door won't open with the main door. You can reposition the thing and the handle to solve that (for a while)
The issue remains that they use thin aluminum to screw into and you can't fix the screw holes like you can with wood.
Similar problem with the screws for the main door striker.
