National Marker N238972 Slide Bolt Door Latch 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The NATIONAL MARKER N238972 is a nickel-finish slide bolt latch designed to secure metal and wood sliding doors. Also cataloged as National model V800, this hardware provides a straightforward mechanical fastening solution for interior or exterior sliding door applications. The extended bar design allows the bolt to clear door moldings, trim profiles, and other surface obstructions without requiring modification to the door or frame. At 0.375 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight unit suited for residential and light commercial door hardware installations. Carpenters, general contractors, and maintenance technicians are the typical installers.

This slide bolt is intended for use on metal or wood sliding doors where a surface-mounted latch is needed. The extended bar is particularly useful on doors with decorative or functional trim that would otherwise prevent a standard bolt from reaching the strike point. It is sold individually and suits both new construction and retrofit applications where an existing latch needs replacement.

Key Features

• Extended bar design bridges over door moldings and trim profiles
• Compatible with both metal and wood sliding door construction
• Nickel finish for corrosion resistance and clean appearance
• Surface-mount installation requires no mortising or routing
• Compact and lightweight at 0.375 pounds

Compatibility

Designed as a surface-mount slide bolt replacement or new installation for residential and light commercial metal or wood sliding doors.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a carpenter, handyman, or maintenance technician using standard hand tools. Power down any automated or motorized door hardware before beginning work. Ensure the door is fully closed and stable before marking hole positions for fasteners. Follow local building codes for door hardware requirements in commercial applications.
