Trying to coax a pocket door with balky hardware from its hiding place can be frustrating. Give your old door new life with this cast-brass pocket door fixture.

The privacy lock has an emergency release on the non-locking side. The finger piece (for retrieving the door from its cubby hole) extends 1-3/8".

Designed for standard thickness interior doors (1-3/8" thick), it can be special ordered for 1-3/4" doors.

Pocket door privacy lock sells for $16.50 (January 2006).
