HOMOTEK Privacy Sliding Door Lock with Pull Oil Rubbed Brass- Replace Old Or Damaged Pocket Door Locks Quickly and Easily, 2-3/4”x2-1/2”, for Door Thickness for 1-3/8”

5 stars--but--be careful.If you live in a new house and you are not very handy and have not installed this before: Don't. Hire someone. You are going to hire someone anyway after you mess this up, so save yourself the time and headache--and possibly, a new door!I have an old house, am pretty handy, AND (big part coming) the exact cut had already been made, as I was replacing, not installing from scratch. Even with all that, I look at it, and kind of laugh. It is far from perfect--that is, my installation. Example: I did not mortise out the strike plate area (besides the indentation for the latch), so it does not sit flush. Any smart guy would notice this, and instantly think less of you. : ) I think less of me already for this!However, since my purpose is to permanently close the pocket door, no one will see it. So, no matter.See what I mean?Anyway, really high qual item, nice finish, great price, I def recommend and will remember this brand--esp since it is such an odd name--Homo tek! Seriously!? : )(Pictured--Antique Brass)

Good locking pocket door device.

edges little sharp. metal latch thin.

Easy to install.

Works great for some of our pocket doors that require a lock. Easy to install.

Perfect replacement part delivered quickly.

These almost fit perfectly as a replacement for the 70s-style shiny chrome handles I had. I had to make the notch in the door 1/16" taller on the top and bottom, and drill an indent in the back for the latching mechanism when it rotates into the locking position. That was no problem; I didn't expect a perfect fit when replacing a handle decades old.My biggest complaint s that the indent for the finger grip slopes too much, making it too easy for your fingers to slip out of the grip when opening or closing the door. This is subtle. The front and back edges of the finger indent should be sharper angles so that your finger tips have a better pushing action on the handle. Like I said, subtle, but this shallower angle does make it a little harder to push the door without your finger slipping out.

Nice for the money
