Sliding Bolt Door Lock,Slide Locks for Inside Door,90 Degree Moving Door Right Angle Buckle Privacy Lock, 90 Degree Latch

This 90 degree latch was exactly what I needed to secure my hollow pocket doors. Many thanks to other reviewers who offered great advice on installing it. As other reviews have noted, the latch has a narrow tolerance -- so the position of the latch unit and strike plate need to be installed carefully. My doors were hollow. If yours are, too, you need to buy hollow door anchors because the screws included with the kit won't hold the latch solidly. And if you do use hollow door anchors, I recommend that you also buy a wall anchor setting tool (to secure it in place). Here's how I was able to align the latch unit and strike plate on my pocket doors... First, I installed the strike plate on the receiving door jamb trim with the straight side of the plate flush with the door side of the trim. (see photo) I drilled pilot holes and used the three screws that come with the kit. They seemed solid enough. Second, with the door closed, I connected the latch unit to the strike plate and positioned the latch unit against the pocket door and checked that it would open and close. I marked the latch unit's screw hole locations on the door with an ice pick. Then set the latch unit aside. Third, I drilled holes in the pocket door at the marked locations. Large enough for the hollow door anchor to barely fit through. I used the wall anchor setting tool to secure the anchors in the door. At this point, the latch is unlikely to engage with the strike plate. But check it anyway by holding it in place manually and moving the latch knob to ON. If it doesn't engage, use a small metal washer or two between the back side of the latch unit and the door anchor screws. My installation needed two washers for each screw. You may get by with just one washer for each screw. Small washers will be invisible behind the latch unit once it is installed. But they add enough lift to align the latch unit with its strike pad. That's what worked for me. Again, many thanks to other reviewers who shared their tips for installation.

Once I finally got it in place, it is a well made sturdy little lock. Lining up the locking mechanism and the bracket that goes in the door is very difficult because the slot has to be precise or the hooking tab won't slide in. I recommend using double sided tape to put things up exactly where you want them, get it lined up right, then mark your holes. You will need anchors if your door is hollow like mine to add strength, as the screws are on the short and small side.

This lock is easy to install and very effective. I have it on my front screen door.

My guest bathroom has a pocket door with no latch or lock. I added this in less than minutes and have been pleasantly surprised at how well it works and how nice it looks. There are no instructions for installing because they're not needed. To install, I connected the two latching pieces and held them on the door for placement, making sure not to make the fit too tight. I screwed the larger part onto the door first, then marked the smaller receptacle piece carefully before screwing it into the door frame. I'm very happy with how well the latch works and how nice it looks on the door. My door opens on the left, and installing the lock so that the latching hook rotates up from the bottom works perfectly.

I was looking for an inside door latch for the screen door on my shop. I looked at several different kinds and ran across this one. I’ve never seen one like that so I thought I’d try it. It works really well and is very secure once installed. Looks cool too.I recommend this latch for your screen door.

because of the angle this lock has to be installed it took time and effort to get it to match up to connect and lock. Had to shim up the base to meet the locking mechanism.

Measure carefully, it has an extremely tight tolerance. My house is old and the wood door frame has imperfections so this just doesn’t work. Unfortunately I missed the return window.

The item was smaller than thought it would be but worked well for our situation.

Funzionale e robusto.

Personally I’ve never seen a lock like this before. It’s very smart looking, extremely sturdy and robust looking and very simple to fit and easy to use. I was looking for a simple cheap lock for a downstairs toilet / cloakroom, but where the door opens OUT of the room, not in to the room. Outward swinging doors need different locks to those opening in to a room. This one was perfect and worked brilliantly. Feels much more secure as a lock than the standard simple sliding barrel lock we had before that was damaging the doorframe where the lock entered the hole in the door frame and was being forced when accidentally trying to be opened with it locked. This lock was great for our door scenario. Very pleased for the £16.19 I paid. Bit pricier than other locks available, but this one is brilliant and quite flash looking.

Super ! Pratique pour fermer les portes coulissantes. Produit de bonne qualité.

Great quality and does the job. Very sturdy.
