Schlage B252 Double Cylinder Deadlatch — B250 Series Overview
The B252 operates as a deadlatch for situations where the non-handled function of a deadbolt is desired in a self-locking form. This makes it ideal for pool gates, double-cylinder applications, and any installation where automatic relocking is essential to security. The latch retracts by key from either side with no hold-back feature.
