Is it difficult to change the direction of the latch from a right handed door to a left handed door, or vice versa?

Not difficult at all, the directions in the packaging explain how to do it. It took me maybe 5 minutes tops to do it.

No it's quite simple really. Just google how to do it if you get stuck or diydata.com to show you how. I purchased a few of these for all right handed doors and was pleased. You need to remove a screw and side plate and the lock spring locator and just reverse it. That's it.

Anthony, I didn't install these latches, but they can certainly go on either side of the door. If you mean you want to change one from right to left, I don't see any problem except that you'll have to patch up the side you take it from. We bought 8 of these and they are wonderful!

Yes, it can be changed from left to right. Basically turn the main part of the unit upside down and switch the drain and plug from top to bottom. The name plaque can be removed and installed right side up. Quite simple design.

I believe the same lockset works for both left and right. You just have to re-assemble to rotate the latch and handles. , It's been years since I changed mine. Disassembly is quite easy as I recall. I hope this helps.

Hi nomad,Although I am right handed, I know there is a setting inside where you can adjust for either left handed or right handed orientation. Hope this helps.

I don't recall reading anything about the door being interchangeable. The one I purchased opened to the right. I used it as an auction item so I (unfortunately) don't have it in my home!! LOL

Hi Amy, Unfortunately, no the door cannot be switched to open in the other direction.

I believe that you can. The latch is designed to go on both left and right opening doors. However, in your case the latch and hasp will need to be reversed from the usual install. This might work it might not. I can't tell without seeing your setup. My advice is you get it and try and see if it can be installed. If not then return it.

Kwikset Tustin left handed half dummy lever in satin nickel. This will work on the opposite side or opposite partner door.

Not difficult as long as you complete in the proper order. Decide which direction you want the door before you start. Screwdriver is all you need.

The latch handle is a universal handle. For left hand installation it will be as pictured. For right hand installation simply put the other end of the handle into the keeper/bearing plate assembly.

The hinge-holes are drilled on the right side, and there is a block on the upper left where the magnet is pre-mounted to hold the door closed. It would be awkward to try to mount the magnet on the opposite side. So, no, this wouldn't work well to swap the door to open right to left. As much as I like this cabinet, I'd suggest you look for a different one.

It doesn't matter which side the door hinges are on. The lever that is on the lock is made to be reversed very easily to accommodate either a right or left hinged door.

It goes either way. The handles inside and outside are the same so you can switch them to make it work on left or right.

No, you have to get the right one for your door according to the little chart on the left side, either left-hand or right-hand. You cannot switch them.

Yea, mine lock in both directions. You push until there's a small click and the same for the open position.

This is a right handed IWB. I don't see anyway to switch the hardware to make it a left side. Hope this helps

This is the reverse of standard usability and it is a design flaw in this product, in my opinion, so for others reading this, take it into consideration. I got used to it and no longer think about it. Mine was installed by a plumber, and he said nothing about changing it to standard direction-turning, so I assumed it wasn't an option.
