Q:Is it possible to replace the handle with a thumbturn deadbolt? I am looking for something a bit more flush to the door. Also, what is the thickness of the door?

1 Answer
Answer This Question
A:Â Unfortunately, we are unable to confirm if a thumbturn deadbolt would work as the opening in the door is made specifically for the handle that comes with this product. The door thickness is 1.5".

Worked great for storage access in bonus room. Kept handles off for a flush look on the wall. Would purchase in future for another project. Do not think these are rated fire proof, however can purchase more expensive models if wanted that feature/rating.

I only gave it 4 stars since the door lock/bolt was installed improperly. The knife/bolt would not open past the striker plate since it struck the inside of the plate. I had to force the handle open with Channel-locks. The lock employs a knife/bolt which is not sprung and attaches directly to the handle. The door knife bolt struck the bottom, after forced open, of the frame striker/receiver plate. Once I forced it open, it would not re-engage without modification. To be clear, forcing it open did not make subsequent modification necessary rather the striker plate was installed about 1/8 inch too high in the frame. I was on the job site and had to take a couple of hours of MY time to go back to the shop to lower the strike plate in the frame so the knife could easily be engaged and release as designed. The unit itself is a very good solution and fit easily between the 24 inch on center knee wall studs. I would likely buy it again but would certainly closely inspect the door handle mechanism before leaving the shop.
