House Door Hardware List: What an 11-Door Villa Orders

A house orders four door sets: a lock, deadbolt, viewer and guard for the entrance; a passage lever for rooms; a privacy lever for bathrooms; and a hook lock or flush pull for sliding doors. Add three hinges and a stop per hinged door, then multiply by the number of houses.

The set by door type

Order by house type, not by item. Write one row per door type for each plan, count the doors on that plan, then multiply by the number of houses. Rows that repeat across every door, such as hinges and stops, are where a short count stops a site.

Count for one house, then multiply

This example is a villa with one entrance, six room doors, three bathrooms and one sliding door. Replace the door counts with your plan. The right column is the same house built 20 times.

Pick one lever family for the whole house

Choose the family first, then order by function: ET for entrance, BK for bathroom, PS for passage. These tubular lever locks are listed as fully reversible, so you do not count left and right hands.

  • LH853 and LH852 cover all three functions in one lever.
  • 8803 and 8806 have no passage model, so ask before you plan them for room doors.
  • Use one finish on every line, hinges and stops included.

Entrance door

Measure this door first, because it is often thicker than the rest. Grip sets and D101 SS list 35 to 45 mm, so a 50 mm entrance door needs the mortise row. Grip sets list a 51 mm cross bore. If the door comes pre-drilled, send the bore and the distance between the two holes, and read the grip handle lock guide before you order.

  • Order a key outside and a thumbturn inside. The US International Residential Code (R311.2) requires the egress door to open from inside without a key.
  • D102 SS is a double cylinder, which needs a key to get out, so it is not on this list.
  • Use 70 SNKT or 60 SNKT with the mortise row, not a double key cylinder.
  • The door guard goes on the inside face of the door and frame.
  • Viewer: order by door thickness.
  • Near the sea, ask about 304 on every hinge line. BL028 lists 304 or 201.

Bathroom door

Order a privacy lever, not a keyed lock, so nobody can be locked in by a lost key. The photographs of LH853 SNBK and 8806 SSBK show a slot on the outside lever. We do not list it as an emergency release, so test a sample with a coin or a small tool, especially for a house with children or older people. State 304 stainless on the hinge line for a wet room. SSH012 lists 304.

Sliding doors

A sliding door takes a flush fitting, because a lever would stop it going into a pocket. Track, rollers and pocket frames are not in this catalogue. Fix them first, because the frame sets how thick the door can be and where the hook lands.

  • Hook locks fit inside the door edge, so send the door thickness before you order.
  • The hook needs a keeper on the frame. S02 CP lists a 90 mm keeper.
  • The photographs of S02 CP and 881 SS show a key on one face and a turn on the other. Put the turn inside a bathroom.
  • 600 is a pull only. It does not lock.
  • A heavy glass sliding door is not on this list. Send a drawing.

Keying and what to send

Keys are the part of a house order that is hardest to fix after delivery. Each house needs its own key, with the entrance lock and deadbolt on that one key. D101 SS is listed as able to be keyed to pair with an entrance lock. Agree a key list by house number before cylinders go on order, and label each set by house.

  • House types and the number of each.
  • Door count by type for each house type.
  • Leaf width, height and thickness, entrance door listed separately.
  • Cross bore and backset if doors arrive pre-drilled.
  • Sliding door thickness and track drawing.
  • Key list by house number.
  • One finish, or one finish per house type.

Questions buyers ask

What door hardware does a house need?

An entrance lock set with viewer and guard, a passage lever for each room, a privacy lever for each bathroom, and a hook lock or flush pull for each sliding door. Each hinged door also takes three hinges and a stop.

How many hinges does a house order need?

Three per hinged door up to 2286 mm (90 in) high. A house with ten hinged doors takes 30 hinges. Common trade practice is one hinge for each 762 mm (30 in) of door height.

Should a villa entrance use a double cylinder deadbolt?

No. A double cylinder needs a key to get out, which is a danger in a fire. Order a key outside and a thumbturn inside.

Do I need left-hand and right-hand levers?

Not for the tubular lever locks in this list, which are listed as fully reversible. Grip handle sets are listed as non-handed too. Confirm the hand on any mortise order.

Can each house have its own key?

Yes. Send a key list by house number with the order, and we confirm it against the lock lines before the cylinders are made.

Do you supply sliding door track?

No. Track, rollers and pocket frames are not in this catalogue. We list the hook locks and flush pulls that go on the door.
