Keyed Entry Commercial Door Handle | Heavy Duty Commercial Door Locks with Indicator | Restaurant, Store, Hospital, Warehouse | Locking Occupied Door Lever Lock with Ke (Silver)

Went with this lock-set for an outdoor pool restroom. This is ideal if we are having a backyard get together with a lot of people and someone needs to know if the restroom is occupied or not. This handle cannot be unlocked using a screwdriver or coin, adding to security. It seems very durable and usable in either commercial or residential applications. The handle can be easily swapped to accommodate a left or right side door entry. This is keyed Schlage, and if you have locksmith experience, you can re-key this lock fairly easy as I did. Once the lock cylinder is removed, there is a cap that is pressed on that has to be removed carefully before you can begin the re-key process.

I was on the hunt for a new door handle with a lock for our downstairs bathroom and I came across this. I definitely recommend this product for anyone who has a busy household. It comes with easy for follow instructions which makes installation a breeze. I was able to do it on my own and it only took a couple of minutes. The handle is very heavy duty nice and sturdy material.

Deceptive/incorrect advertising:- Function: "Access requires a key…perfect for 'customer only' restaurant bathrooms"--no, it's locked only when IN-USE is on. No way to make it locked and say VACANT. When VACANT is on, it's always unlocked. So even if you only have 1 restroom and only use 1 key that you give to a customer each time, you have to rely on the customer to lock the door back up after they exit.. Nobody will do that.. That's extra work and it will then say IN-USE, so other customers will think someone's inside and keep waiting.- Color: The 3rd and 8th picture show a finish that's the same color as the key, which is chrome or satin chrome, and all the rest of the pictures without the key also look satin chrome, but the lock is actually looks beige or nickel/satin nickel. They do say the finish is Satin Nickel on the 4th picture, but you really have to look for it. It doesn't look nickel in any of the pictures.- Fire rating: Usually there's a sticker or a stamp of UL cert/rating on the latch if the lock is fire-rated. Especially if it's "commercial grade". This one doesn't have any of that, so the large pictures when you scroll down that show flames and "3 Hour Fire Rating" are likely false.A little strange that it doesn't say their brand anywhere. Usually the latch at least has a stamp showing the brand name. This looks generic. Nothing wrong with generic, but you should know what you're getting.Main reason it's 1 star is because I wanted the function where it would be locked, but would say VACANT and would only turn IN USE when someone inside actually locks it, so the key to give to customers would not work when it said IN USE so it's secure to those inside. Then it would work for customer-only bathrooms in public places, but this doesn't do that (even though they said it's perfect for that). The other reason is that I wanted what the lock looked like in the listing pictures, satin chrome, not what it is--satin nickel.

This door knob is absolutely wonderful. It’s very heavy duty and durable. We used this at a shop that was being built, and it’s not apart of their employee bathroom. The vacant and occupied signs built in are incredible, and very useful. The keys provided are of very good quality. I recommend this to anyone looking for this specific type of door knob.

Unfortunately, my door hinge is on the opposite side of the default orientation. I figured this would be okay since the description indicates this door knob is reversible. The instructions on how to reverse the handles are not clear and I couldn't get it to work properly. Ultimately, I installed it upside down, which works, but the indicator is harder to see. The installation would have been super easy if the hinge had been on the right hand side with respect to the exterior side of the door. The photos others have posted seem to show this orientation. I'm going to dock 2 stars for insufficient documentation.The materials seem to be good quality and the keys are the standard Schlage type.

Solid product

The locks stopped working, the locks would let customers out. The knob turns by itself.

Setting it up was a breeze and it works like a charm on the door, and good for letting when the bathroom is occupied. And the price is great
