Missing from doorjamb

Don't know exactly where this should be posted.  Anyone know how long the screws are that screw the strikeplate to the door?   I just noticed that I have one missing & don't want to get one too short or too long.   I'm guessing 3/4 to @ 1 inch long??

@lkc001, try removing the other screw so you can measure it. Add pieces of toothpicks to both holes and a bit of super glue to provide a tighter hole for the screw to be held better.

I didn't want the whole faceplate to fall off, but that makes sense to put some toothpicks & glue in there to hold better.

What trailer do you have? If it's a tab 400 then there is an issue you need to address which explains why the screw fell out. Mine did too.
