Hillman Builders Hardware 854477 Barrel Bolt 2.5 Inch Black

Product Description

The HILLMAN BUILDERS HARDWARE 854477 is a 2.5 inch barrel bolt finished in black, designed to secure doors, gates, cabinets, and similar applications where a simple sliding latch mechanism is required. The barrel bolt operates by sliding a cylindrical rod into a receiving loop or strike, providing a quick and reliable manual lock. At 0.22 pounds, this hardware is lightweight and straightforward to install. It suits residential and light commercial applications where a surface-mounted latching solution is needed without a keyed lock cylinder.

This barrel bolt is appropriate for interior and exterior use on swinging doors, shed doors, barn doors, cabinet doors, and gates. It is a common choice for trade professionals and contractors working on residential construction, renovation, and millwork projects. The black finish allows it to coordinate with dark hardware sets and complements a range of door and gate materials including wood, metal, and composite.

Installation Notes

Barrel bolts are typically installed by carpenters, general contractors, or knowledgeable DIYers using a screwdriver or drill driver. Mount the bolt body to the door or gate face and align the strike loop to the frame or mating surface before fastening. Ensure the sliding rod travels freely through its full range of motion before completing the installation. No special tools or trade licensing are required, though hardware should be installed plumb and square for reliable long-term operation.
