Pemko Privacy Door Latch

Increase Privacy, Reduce Door and Frame Damage

The Pemko Privacy Door Latch (PDL) is recommended for environments with corridorto-interior openings such as hotels or dormitories. This durable accessory allows the door to be opened for identification while providing privacy for the guest or resident.

The design of the PDL does not allow the door to be held open, avoiding door and frame damage caused by the door slamming against a traditional flip latch or chain. The PDL's silicone pads provide additional protection for the door.

The PDL is UL Classified as a fire door accessory. It also meets the requirements of NFPA 80 Sections 5.2.4.2 and 5.2.13.3, that requires auxiliary hardware does not interfere or prohibit the proper operation of fire rated doors, and that doors are not blocked or wedged in the open position.

Privacy Solutions

Door guards, flip latches and sliding chains have been used as means to provide privacy for guests and residents. However, these devices have been misused to prop doors open, causing damage to the door and frame as well as defeating the purpose of a fire-rated door.

The Pemko Privacy Door Latch allows guests or residents to identify persons outside the door without fully opening the door. The PDL cannot be used to hold the door open, allowing for privacy, preventing damage, and meeting NFPA Requirements.
