Don-jo PDL101613 Square Privacy Pocket Door Lock

Product Description

The DON-JO PDL101613 is a square-style privacy pocket door lock finished in oil rubbed bronze. Pocket door locks serve a different mechanical purpose than standard passage hardware — they must engage a sliding door edge rather than a swinging door stile, requiring a turn-button or coin-slot mechanism that throws a latch into the door frame track. This unit is sold individually and is appropriate for interior privacy applications such as bathrooms, bedrooms, and dressing rooms where a simple occupied indicator or one-sided lock is required. The oil rubbed bronze finish suits installations where dark, warm hardware finishes are specified.

Pocket door privacy locks are used in residential and light commercial interior applications wherever space constraints make a swinging door impractical. This lock is designed for single-door pocket door assemblies and is typically installed during finish carpentry or during a door hardware retrofit. It is suitable for new construction and remodel projects where the specified finish must coordinate with existing door and cabinet hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a finish carpenter, locksmith, or experienced DIYer familiar with pocket door hardware. The pocket door assembly should be fully installed and the door panel properly aligned in the track before fitting the lock hardware. No power tools or electrical shutoff are required, but confirm the door edge thickness and backset clearance match the lock body dimensions before installation. Follow the door manufacturer and local building code requirements for interior privacy hardware in occupied-room applications.
