Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N151-589 is a 3-inch barrel bolt finished in dull brass, designed to provide a simple slide-latch solution for doors, gates, cabinets, and similar applications. The barrel bolt features a cylindrical sliding mechanism that engages a fixed staple or loop, securing the surface without requiring a key or lock mechanism. Mounting screws are included, allowing for straightforward installation without sourcing separate hardware. At 1.6 pounds per package of 10 units, each bolt is a lightweight, low-profile fastener suited for light- to medium-duty applications in residential and light commercial settings.

This barrel bolt is commonly used on interior and exterior doors, shed doors, garden gates, cabinet doors, and utility enclosures where a quick manual latch is needed. The dull brass finish offers a traditional appearance that blends with standard residential hardware finishes. It is typically installed by carpenters, general contractors, maintenance technicians, or experienced DIYers performing door hardware upgrades or replacements.

Installation Notes

Installation requires only basic hand tools such as a screwdriver or drill with the appropriate bit.

Align the strike plate carefully before final fastening to ensure smooth bolt engagement. No special trade license is required for typical door hardware installation.
