Ives 42B26D Solid Brass Pocket Door Bolt Satin Chrome

Product Description

The IVES 42B26D is a solid brass pocket door bolt finished in satin chrome, designed to provide a secure latching solution for sliding pocket doors in residential and light commercial applications. The bolt installs flush into the edge of a pocket door, allowing occupants to lock the door from one side without exposed hardware interfering with the door's travel into the wall cavity. Measuring 3 inches in length, 1.1 inches in width, and 0.5 inches in height, this compact unit weighs just 0.07 pounds and is sized for clean, unobtrusive installation. The satin chrome finish offers a neutral, corrosion-resistant appearance suited to a wide range of interior door hardware schemes.

The 42B26D is used wherever a pocket door requires a privacy or security bolt — bathrooms, bedrooms, offices, and conference rooms are common installations. The low-profile form factor works within the tight clearances typical of pocket door frames, and the satin chrome finish coordinates with standard architectural hardware in that family. This bolt is sold individually and is a straightforward replacement or new-installation component for contractors, finish carpenters, and general tradespeople working on interior door hardware projects.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter, general contractor, or experienced DIYer as part of interior door hardware work. Before installation, confirm the door edge has sufficient thickness and clearance within the pocket door frame to accept the bolt body dimensions. A chisel and router are commonly used to mortise the bolt flush with the door edge. Follow the door and frame manufacturer's template guidelines to ensure proper alignment of the bolt and any corresponding strike or catch.
