Buying Guide: Commercial Door Hardware

Levers, Locksets and Deadbolts
Entry levers add a keyed outside lock and an inside button that locks the outside lever until it is unlocked. Privacy levers suit bathrooms and changing rooms, and storeroom locksets keep the outside locked while the key is removed. The single cylinder deadbolt has a saw-resistant bolt and a metal collar to resist prying.

Pulls, Plates and Strikes
Pull plates and push plates add a clean look to the opposite side of a door, and one pull plate has a 1-1/4 inch hole for an exit device rim cylinder. The stainless steel strike plate is designed to replace a worn or damaged strike plate on the door frame.

Hinges, Stops and Holders
The ball bearing hinges use internal bearings to reduce friction and noise, and they come predrilled and reversible. The dome floor stop mounts to the floor to protect walls from swinging doors, and the kick-down door holder keeps a door open.
