Just looked at your pics again and realized that while the motorized retractable rolling screens I posted earlier might work for three of your four arches, you need something else at the stairway arch so that you have a way for people to come and go. So, here is another website that might be helpful. Don't know if these come in a version tall enough or wide enough to cover your arch but maybe...

dianelouise, I'm not clear on what you're asking. Are you making a stone ledge to put the tv on? We have a 52" with a bose surround sound system with small speakers (There is actually 4 double speakers, two double speakers mounted up on the tv wall -- two double speakers mounted on the sofa wall and one double speaker under the tv. Our tv cabinet is about 24" high and the tv is about 4" higher with the stand. I determined the height by putting the tv on an old coffee table, then building it up with wood until we achieved the height we wanted. I was also constricted with the width, as the wall it's on, is only 10' and then it hits the door. I like it open, and didn't want doors. We did however make a cabinet for the kitchen with doors, as I didn't want to see the tv when not in use. You have a big room, with a lot of options. my kitchen tv doors open

a picture of the actual handle might help. Is there a physical push button? If so, then when it's "locked" you shouldn't be able to push the button in at all. If you can push the button is when it's "locked" the it's likely assembled incorrectly and the locking mechanism isn't moving to the correct position when the key is turned. If when it's locked you can't push the button in but you can pull the door open then it's an alignment issue. This looks like a pretty simple mechanism with a "flap" that moves in/out when tyhe latch is operated. When the door is closed the flap engages the protruding part of the strike plate. When the button is pushed the flap retracts and is free of the strike plate to allow the door to open. Both the interior and exterior locks should prevent any movement of either the handle inside or the button outside that would cause the flap to retract and disengage from the strike plate. Even with the door open if you set the lock mechanism the inside handle should be prevented from moving and you should not be able to push the exterior button in. However if the flap doesn't engage the strike plate it doesn't matter if the door is locked or not it can simply be pulled open.
