How to Choose Privacy Mortise Locks

Privacy mortise locks are designed for doors that need latch operation along with privacy on the interior side. They are often used where keyed entry is not needed, but the door still needs a privacy function and a mortise lock body installed in the edge of the door.

The first thing to confirm is that the door is prepped for mortise hardware and that privacy function is the correct choice for the application. If the door needs keyed entry or another lock function, a privacy mortise lock will not be the right fit. Starting with the correct function will make it easier to narrow the options.

Handing is also important on this page. The visible filters include left and right options, so matching the handing to the door setup is an important part of choosing the correct lock. If you are replacing existing hardware, confirming the handing before ordering can help avoid fit issues.

Finish, door thickness, and backset details also matter when comparing options. This page includes multiple finish choices along with door thickness and backset filters, which can help shoppers choose a privacy mortise lock that fits the door correctly and coordinates with the rest of the hardware.
