Find the Right Lock for Your Sliding Door
Unlike a hinged door, a sliding door cannot always use a conventional tubular latch or mortice lock. It requires a mechanism designed to engage securely while the door moves sideways. Our range of sliding door locks and latches includes options for internal doors, bathrooms, bedrooms, ensuites, home offices and barn-style doors.
From discreet flush-fitting designs to decorative barn door latches, you can choose hardware that provides the privacy or closure you need without compromising the appearance of your door.
Internal Sliding Door Locks
Internal sliding door locks are ideal where you need privacy without the bulk of traditional door furniture. They can be used on pocket doors and surface-mounted sliding doors in bathrooms, bedrooms, dressing rooms and other interior spaces.
Depending on the product, the lock may use a hook bolt, thumbturn or privacy turn to hold the door closed. Always check the door thickness, lock dimensions and required cut-out before ordering.
Sliding Bathroom Door Locks
For bathrooms and ensuites, choose a dedicated sliding bathroom door lock or privacy set. These products are designed to operate neatly from a flush or low-profile fitting, making them well suited to doors that slide into a pocket or closely alongside a wall.
Complete sets may include the lock case, privacy turn, emergency release and flush pull. Check each product description to confirm which components are supplied.
Barn Door Latches and Locks
Barn door latches provide a practical way to keep a surface-mounted sliding door closed. They are suitable for rustic, industrial and contemporary interiors, with finishes available to coordinate with your sliding door track, handles and surrounding ironmongery.
When selecting a sliding barn door lock, consider whether you simply need to hold the door closed or require additional privacy. A basic latch can suit cupboards and living spaces, while bedrooms and bathrooms may benefit from a purpose-designed privacy lock.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you put a lock on a sliding door?
Yes. Sliding doors can be fitted with specialist locks that use hook bolts, privacy turns or surface-mounted latches. The best option depends on how the door is installed and whether you need simple closure, privacy or keyed access.
What is the difference between a sliding door lock and a latch?
A latch mainly keeps the door closed, while a lock restricts access using a key, thumbturn or privacy mechanism. Some products combine both functions.
What type of lock is best for a sliding bathroom door?
Choose a purpose-designed sliding bathroom door lock or privacy set. Where required, look for a set with an external emergency release and an indicator showing whether the room is occupied.
Can barn door latches be used on bathroom doors?
Some barn door latches provide basic privacy, but not every latch is suitable for a bathroom. A dedicated privacy lock is preferable where an indicator or emergency release is needed.
Are these locks suitable for patio or external sliding doors?
Not necessarily. This range is primarily suited to internal timber, pocket and barn-style sliding doors. Patio, glazed and external doors may require weather-resistant, security-rated hardware made for their specific frame system.
