Our collection of Baldwin Pocket Door Mortise Locks offers solutions for every need:
- Privacy Function: Ideal for bathrooms, bedrooms, or offices, these locks feature an interior thumbturn for easy locking and unlocking, often with an emergency override on the exterior.

Key Considerations When Selecting Baldwin Pocket Door Mortise Locks
- Door Thickness: Ensure the mortise lock body is compatible with your pocket door's thickness. Baldwin offers options for various door thicknesses, commonly ranging from 1-3/8" to 2-1/2".
- Backset: Verify the backset measurement (distance from the door's edge to the center of the cylinder/turn hub) for proper installation.
- Functionality Needs: Carefully consider whether you need privacy (thumbturn), keyed entry (key/thumbturn), or simple passage (non-locking) for each door.
- Door Preparation: Mortise locks require a precise pocket to be cut into the edge of the door. If your door isn't pre-prepped for a mortise lock, professional installation is recommended.
- Trim Coordination: Select coordinating trim (pulls, plates, thumbturns, cylinders) that matches the style and finish of your chosen mortise lock body and other hardware.
