The Round Aluminum Door Knob Lock Set

What it is and what it is made of

The Round Aluminum Door Knob Lock Set is a round knob with a built-in lock and key. The knob and its parts are made of aluminum alloy, and the finish is silver. The round shape gives it a plain, classic look that suits bedrooms, living rooms and bathrooms.

The set is sold as a single knob set. Screws and a latch are included, so you have the main parts you need for a standard install. A key is part of the lock.

Size and fit

The set is built for common interior door thickness. Check your door before you buy.

If your door is thicker than 1-3/4 in (45 mm), this set will not fit. For doors within the range, the latch and screws work with the standard bore holes found on most interior doors.

Color and style

The set comes in silver. The silver finish is bright and neutral, so it pairs with silver hinges, silver switch plates and other silver hardware in the same room. The round knob shape is simple and smooth, which keeps the door looking clean and traditional.

This is a lock set, so it has a key. That makes it a fit for a bedroom, a bathroom or any interior door where you want the option to lock from one side.

How to fit it

1. Check your door thickness. It must be between 1-3/8 and 1-3/4 in (35 and 45 mm).
2. Confirm the door has standard bore holes for a knob and latch. This set uses screws and a latch that fit a standard setup.
3. Fit the latch into the edge of the door.
4. Place the knob halves on each side of the door and line up the screw holes.
5. Fix the screws from the front to join the two halves.
6. Test the turn and the lock with the key before you close the door.

A few tips help the install go well. Support the door so it does not swing while you work. Do not over-tighten the screws, since that can bind the turn. If the latch does not line up with the strike plate on the frame, adjust the plate rather than forcing the knob.

Care

Wipe the knob with a dry cloth. Keep water and wet cleaners off the silver finish. A dry cloth is enough for normal dust and fingerprints. Do not use abrasive pads or strong chemicals, since they can dull the surface.

Where it works

Use this set on interior doors in bedrooms, living rooms and bathrooms. The silver color and round shape suit homes with simple, classic hardware. Because it is a lock set with a key, it also works on a door where you want privacy and a lock, such as a bedroom or a bathroom.

If you are matching hardware across a room, pair it with silver switch plates, silver wall hooks and silver cabinet knobs. The plain round shape keeps the look consistent without drawing attention.

What you get

One round door knob lock set in silver, plus the screws and the latch. The set is sold as a single unit. A key is part of the lock. Check the door thickness range of 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 in (35 to 45 mm) before ordering, and remember that the set is not for doors thicker than 1-3/4 in (45 mm).
