2) What door thickness does this roller latch accommodate?
Verify door thickness requirements from manufacturer specifications. Most Ives roller latches accommodate standard door thicknesses. Check the installation template for exact measurements before ordering.

Most roller latches are reversible for different door swings. Confirm handing requirements and installation orientation from the manufacturer template before installation.

This model features a brass finish. The brass provides corrosion resistance and matches traditional hardware aesthetics. Clean with appropriate brass cleaners to maintain appearance.
