What mounting screw size is used?

Can someone tell me what size screws are mounting this lock to the back door.

I asked multiple people who all give me different answers and I don't know which screw size it needs.

Please don't ask same questions in new threads, have some patience if people have not yet had a chance to read or answer your original question. If you have access to the lock/door, go to Home Depot, spend $5 on a handful of metric and standard coarse and fine thread screws and you will soon find out which one is the correct one.

Likewise, you can go to antique-locks.com forums and ask there.
