Hi, I am interested in this product but I would like to know if I need to buy something else to lock the door? I want this for private rooms.. and I am not sure if this product comes complete... Thanks

The lever you are asking about does not have a locking mechanism. It is used where privacy is not an issue, like a laundry room or basement door. The lever with a push button lock is Schlage F40VLAT619 Latitude Style Privacy Lever, Satin Nickel. Hope this helps:)

Our inside bottom handle has a button turn lock. I usually just use the deadbolt when home alone, but lock both at night. Our set is as advertised and we like it very much. We've had many compliments on the appearance and we live in a condominium community. There are different options for the bottom handle and it sounds as though you received one without an inside lock, which is strange if it locks from the outside. Look up the options as you may just need a different inside handle.

1. You can't lock it from the inside. It opens as a normal door. You would need to add a deadbolt. I don't use anything else.2. No. It's always locked to someone in the outside, and always open to someone in the inside.3. Yes.

This lock comes complete. Just need a drill, bit, hammer and chisel. Comes with full instructions and I believe a template also. No other parts needed for this lock. Love it and looks and works great for my pocket door.

You can secure it with some of the double sided tape that came with it, but it doesn't give you very much...I found it to be to flimsy to stay under my door...I really think the product is pretty worthless!!

I have had the lock installed for about 3 months and haven't needed to replace them yet. I am sure it will depend on how often the door is opened and closed. I am the only person in my household. On another note, I wouldn't recommend this product because it malfunctions quite a bit. It was replaced once because there was a clicking sound and wouldn't lock. When I got a new one it did the same thing until my fiancé did some adjustments on his own. You could also get the same thing at Home Depot for the same or better price.

No. I can't think why that would be necessary. It is either locked or unlocked set on the door itself.

Hi there - locks are not included with this model, those would need to be purchased as an accessory. Thanks!

I see some have mentioned that a lock isn't necessary, but I don't see how the opener would "lock" the door. It simply locks the tension spring, which "assists" in opening the door. The tension bar is connected to cables, which connect to the door. If the tension spring is locked, anyone (or group of people) who is/are strong enough to lift a door without springs, could open the door. Again, this opener doesn't seem to lock the door, but instead locks the tension spring, which is not the same as locking the door.

Nope, it doesn't have a lock. If you wanted to lock the doors, you'd have to buy one of those baby-proof cabinet door locking things, which wouldn't look terribly fashionable...

I am another owner of this product. When I got mine the keys were taped inside the box. The door is a tight fit and I had to pull hard to get it open. Hopefully that is all you will need to do to get to the keys. If not, you will have to contact the manufacturer, I doubt if they monitor these comments.

The doors close shut, but there is no lock. I can tell you they do not open easily on their own. I've been very happy with my purchase. If you want you can add a latch lock to it.

You can buy a lock kit for it. It does not come with the kit and I did not purchase one. Go to Bestop web site to check on a price.

You can lock the door from outside with a key. I leave the inside on lock mode all the time, that way I now the door is locked.

It comes with the keyed lock, therefore no need to buy separately. Good system and will deter the casual passer by. Will not deter the persistent individual.

Hi patti, your door should have come with a panel that you can slide over the flap to seal it off from both inside and outside ,if you bought an ideal pet product door, they may have neglected to put it in the box, I have had some issues with ideal, hope this helps

I installed this lock on the entry door to my rental aprt. It came with two keys. I imgine you can take it to any locksmith or maybe Home Depot to make extras. But I did not give the key to my tenant. Instead, i set up one combination of their choosing. So there is no need to give them the key.
