Could you explain why the pawl? I always close paddles and leave the
pawl off to signal the paddle is down - as the amount of projecting rack
varies between locks. If I come to a lock with paddle which should be
down and the pawl on, I take the pawl off and try to see if it will go
down further, unless it is one where the rack is obviously at the end of
its travel.
