Privacy Hardware Thumb Turns

A thumb turn is a small knob mechanism that allows you to lock or unlock an internal door by rotating it with your thumb and finger.

Privacy Hardware Emergency Releases

An emergency release, also called a coin release, is installed on the opposite side of the door, and enables the door to be unlocked from the outside. A coin or flat edged object is inserted into the small groove to turn the lock.

Privacy Hardware for Sliding Doors

For sliding doors that retract into a cavity, the door hardware needs to sit flush with the door, to prevent any obstruction. We offer a great range of sliding door hardware with incorporated privacy turns to cater for this need. View our Sliding Door Hardware.

Privacy Hardware Latches

When choosing a Latch for your door, ensure that it has privacy functionality in order to encorporate a thumb turn and release.
