Sliding Door Lock Barn Door Lock Pocket Door Lock Screen Door Latch 90 Degree Door Latch Hasp Latch Clasp Lock (Bronze S)

I was looking for a latch for my basement door for my 100 year old home to prevent my little one from wandering down there. I wanted something that was both functional and blended in with the look of the existing antique hardware. (Side note: I use a doorstop on the other side of the door when I am down in the basement to keep him out). This does just the trick, and I have installed it on my laundry and pantry door as well. Thanks to the gentleman who answered my question about the pilot holes. My tips for install are: - Painter tape the area for drilling to the ensure no wood splitting, cracking. - Pilot hole is 3/32 inch diameter - Remove tape. - I would offset the two pieces. You are moving an “arm” in an arc but the bar that it fits into is perpendicular. So you need to account for the space of the angle. So I put the piece with arm slightly higher than the static piece so that there is more wiggle room when you move the arm. I’m not sure if this would have fixed the issue with the other customer having to saw off half of the bar, but that addressed it for me. - if possible, put the piece with the arm on the door and the static piece on the door frame. Helps with not having a lot of protrusion otherwise coming off a door frame if you did it the opposite way. Hope that makes sense. Bottom line is play with the spacing between the two pieces and be precise on the alignment. I see how the washers may be needed to address natural door gaps, etc.

Bought this for a pocket door. It’s super sturdy and it looks really nice. Great quality.

This works good at locking the door.

It looks great It’s only good if you have a right hard door 😩

It was perfect for my sliding door.

Exactly what we needed to secure our glass storm door from our toddler. It wouldn’t fit over the lip of the door frame at first, but we added two washers and it works perfectly now. We also decided to use longer screws in the actual door frame.

This simple 90 degree latch looked like it would work on a pocket sliding door but it jammed after a careful install. The tongue on the latch plate is too long making it almost impossible to get the alignment correct. The latch arm would jam on the tongue. To fix this I had to cut the tongue down to about half its original length. See photo of installed assembly - compare to product photo. Also be aware that the hardware will probably not clear your sliding door opening but I knew that would be the case so we are careful not to open all the way.
