Emtek LC6-TUBPKTLATCH Tubular Pocket Door Privacy Latch

It uses a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and an adjustable backset of 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch, which is the standard residential door prep. If your pocket door was already bored for a conventional tubular pocket door lock, the LC6-TUBPKTLATCH drops in without new boring, and the backset adjusts to whichever of the two centers your hole was drilled on.

The LC6-TUBPKTLATCH is a non-keyed privacy/bed/bath latch, so it is not the part for a keyed opening. The Deltana DLE23875 is a drive-in adjustable latch built for an entry function and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. Match the latch function to the lock function on the door: entry hardware needs the entry latch, and the privacy latch belongs on a bedroom, bathroom, or pocket door where no key is involved.

The Emtek LC6-TUBPKTLATCH covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. For a full 2 inch slab, the Deltana DLP23875 in passage/privacy or the Deltana DLE23875 in entry both carry a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, with the same adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset on the DLP23875. Choose between them by the function the door needs: privacy for a bed or bath, entry where the door is keyed.

Just the latch. It is a replacement latch part, tubular type, so the pocket door pulls, edge pull and any trim are ordered separately. If your existing Emtek pocket door hardware is intact and only the latch failed, this is the piece you need.

Both. The latch faceplate is supplied round or square corner, so it matches either existing mortise cut in the door edge without chiseling a new one.

Residential. Emtek lists the LC6-TUBPKTLATCH as a residential product, so for apartment interiors, single family and light multi-family bathroom pocket doors it is in scope. For a commercial opening with cycle and grade requirements, spec a commercial-rated lock instead.

Not for a pocket door. The Deltana DLP23875 is a drive-in passage/privacy latch for a swinging door, covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch thickness, and it needs a strike in a jamb. A pocket door slides into the wall and latches at the edge with a pocket-specific mechanism, which is what the LC6-TUBPKTLATCH is. Use the Deltana on a hinged door, this Emtek on the pocket.

They share the function and the backset settings - the DLP23875 is passage/privacy with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, the same two backsets the LC6-TUBPKTLATCH offers - but the prep is not the same. The Emtek is a tubular latch prepped for a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a faceplate in round or square corner, while the DLP23875 is a drive-in latch that seats in the edge bore without a mortised faceplate. If the door already has a mortised faceplate pocket, a drive-in latch leaves it exposed. Confirm which prep is in the door edge before ordering.

No. The Kwikset 84290 is a square corner plainlatch on a 2-3/8 inch backset with a UL rating, and the Kwikset 83521 RCAL plain latch is the UL 3 hour plain latch for the BBL, KNL, CNL and PLL trims. A plain latch is a spring latch driven by a knob or lever on a swinging door - it has no privacy mechanism and no pocket door hardware. The LC6-TUBPKTLATCH is a tubular privacy latch for a pocket door in a privacy/bed/bath function with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. The two parts serve different openings and are not interchangeable.

Two: Polished Chrome (US26) and Polished Brass Lifetime (US3). The latch body is brass, so the finish is applied over solid brass rather than plated steel.

The LC6-TUBPKTLATCH is privacy only and non-keyed. For an entry function on a hinged door, the Deltana DLE23875 adjustable drive-in latch is the entry version we carry, fitting 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.

No. It is a fully mechanical tubular latch with no electronic component, so there is nothing to wire and nothing to lose when the power drops.
