INOX's new patent-pending privacy barn door lock's bolt is installed inside the door jamb and slides securely into the door’s mounted strike. The strike features a discreet spring-loaded dust cover with a decorative cap on the opposite side of the door while the locking mechanism features a one-inch bolt that is activated by a thumb turn and can be locked securely from inside the room. A safety release allows the lock to be disengaged from the outside in case of an emergency. It is available in six designer finishes: bright stainless steel, satin stainless steel, satin brass, satin chrome, oil rubbed bronze, and graphite black.
