Abstract: Under special conditions, it is shown how to adjust topological concordances so as to leave certain sets fixed. Also, a lemma is given which establishes the existence of pinched collars and bicollars under specified circumstances. These two results are then combined to show how to obtain nice extensions of certain homeomorphisms.
