PDQ 579626 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the PDQ 579 privacy door latch ADA compliant?
Yes. The PDQ 579 privacy door latch is ADA compliant and meets NFPA 80 Sections 5.2.4.2 and 5.2.13.3, which is why it gets specified on restroom and single-occupancy doors in commercial buildings where the opening also has to satisfy fire door assembly rules.
2) What finish does the PDQ 579 privacy latch come in?
One finish only: 626 satin chrome, ordered as part number 579626. If your other hardware on the opening is bright brass or oxidized bronze, the 579 will not match it, so plan on satin chrome trim or accept the contrast.
3) Is the PDQ 579 rated for commercial use or is it a residential latch?
The 579 is a commercial-grade privacy latch, catalogued by PDQ as commercial door hardware. It is the same line that supplies PDQ's wall stops, floor stops, roller latches, latch protectors and dust proof strikes for commercial openings.
4) Is a PDQ 579 privacy latch the same thing as a privacy lockset?
No. The 579 is an accessory latch that provides occupancy privacy on the inside face of the door, not a bored lockset with a knob or lever and a latchbolt. If you need a keyed or push-button privacy function in the door prep itself, you want a privacy leverset or knobset instead. The 579 is typically added to an opening alongside the primary latch or roller latch hardware.
5) What is the manufacturer part number for the PDQ privacy door latch?
The base model is PDQ 579. Ordered in the only finish offered, satin chrome, the full part number is 579626.
6) Where can I get the PDQ spec sheet for the 579 privacy latch?
PDQ publishes the 579 in its General Hardware brochure, available at https://zensupply.com/content/pdf/pdq/pdq-general-hardware-brochure.pdf. That document also carries the ANSI type designations PDQ assigns to many models in the line.
