Classic Solid Brass Thumbturn Privacy Door Bolt

Does not fit a standard 1-3/8"" thick door without modifications that are not simple and require tools most homeowners won't possess.

Used in a renovation of an old home.

I wanted to use my handsome vintage brass hardware in our major home renovation and needed to secure some bath doors. These look attractive with my vintage brass. My contractor installed so I cant say is difficult or not.

The description of this product could be better. Not clear what the size of face plate is. I thought it was 2 3/4"" across it not, only about 1 1/2"". The pdf of specs is not for this product it is for a square/rectangular version so it was not helpful when I was looking to purchase. It is beautiful otherwise and I so wish it had been larger and fit the existing hole, I am trying to replace a keyed deadbolt on an interior door.

I like the design and weight for a thumb lock and the finish matches our hinges and glass door knobs. I wish they had included a door install template to help get the holes aligned before drilling. Most locksets provide one and the template they did provide wasn't very helpful. It required that I used a T-square and measure carefully to get the holes drilled for installation

""Verified Reply - Tom Yes, I can confirm this Thumb Turn Privacy Door Bolt - 2 3/8"" Backset will work for a 1 3/8"" thick door"" I got the above answer when I specifically asked if it would fit an 1 3/8"" door. It doesn't fit as designed. I'm making it work with a little redesign. If you don't have the tools, patients or time to mess with modifications don't buy this for a 1 3/8"" door. There were two different descriptions on the site. One said it would fit doors 1 1/2"" to 2"" thick and in the Q&A it says 1 3/8"" to 1 3/4"". That's why I asked the question in the first place.

I have an antique doorknob without a lock that I wanted to keep so I found this and it's perfect!

Maybe this product works on interior doors in other parts of the world - product is manufactured in China.

These are thumb screw hinges. You use them to lock a door that has a passage way lock that you would like to lock like a bedroom or bath. I have a rental house and did not want the door knobs that you push with a button to lock. People don't understand how to use them all the time and little kids might get locked in and they are very hard to unlock and usually require a special key. This saves the problem. You can open them with a screw driver or any straight edge. They look really nice and are code.

We have an old home, built in the late 1800's, and needed a door lock for the downstair powder room. The lock was perfect, and its patina matched existing original hardware, so it looks like the latch belongs on the door. If you can install a door handle, this is a no-brainer.
