Pocket Door Installation | Better Latch

[@KRM_2010]

Love the reality section - that's exactly my experience lol

As a guy who's installed pocket doors, yes that's how.

Nice jig to cut the door knob hole.

That's me all day long cussing at myself and the object I am working with. Now I need to look at my closet pocket door to see how to remove to cut some off the bottom.

Never been a fan of the standard pocket door hardware, especially the tiny finger pull latch. I opted for a sugatsune DSI-4251-45-BL for the pull handle and a Delaney pocket door lock.

Also for acoustic management, I lined the inner drywall panels with butyl automotive sound deadener to dampen fart noises.

That looks like a plain old deadbolt. What's to keep the door from sliding back?

[@Blaster2006SE]

The deadbolt has teeth that hook on inside the door frame
