Emtek LC4-PRV28B275-C 28 Degree Privacy Latch 2-3/4 in

Product Description

The EMTEK LC4-PRV28B275-C is a 28-degree silver privacy latch designed for residential interior door applications where a standard backset and clean installation are required. Featuring a 2-3/4 inch backset and supplied without a faceplate, this latch allows for use with a separately selected or existing faceplate to suit the door prep. The unit measures 3.25 inches in length, 2 inches in width, and 1 inch in height, making it a compact, purpose-built component. At 0.15 pounds, it is lightweight and straightforward to handle during installation. This latch is suitable for locksmiths, finish carpenters, and general contractors working on interior privacy door hardware assemblies.

This privacy latch is intended for interior doors where occupant privacy is required, such as bathrooms, bedrooms, and home offices. The 28-degree latch angle is designed to work with compatible EMTEK privacy locksets. The less-faceplate configuration is appropriate when a mortise faceplate is already present in the door or when a specific faceplate finish is being sourced separately. Sold individually, it is suited for single-door replacement or new construction applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter or locksmith as part of a complete door hardware assembly. Before installation, confirm the door is pre-bored to accept a 2-3/4 inch backset latch and that the latch pocket in the door edge is sized to accept this unit without a faceplate if one is not being used. Power tools are not required for basic installation, though a sharp chisel and screwdriver or bit driver are standard. Verify the latch operates freely and the door latches and releases smoothly before completing the installation.
