Door Hardware - Interior Door Sets

Passage sets versus privacy sets

Interior door hardware sets carried here split into two functions: passage sets, which have no lock and are meant for closets, hallways, and pantries, and privacy sets, which add a simple turn-or-push lock wherever a room needs to close off, a bedroom, a bathroom. Rocky Mountain Hardware makes both functions available in matching Metro, Paris, and Rectangular profiles, so picking a shape never forces a choice between passage and privacy.

How to tell the two apart before ordering

A privacy set includes a small lock mechanism built into the plate, usually released from the outside with a simple tool in an emergency, while a passage set is purely mechanical with no lock at all. The listing names say which is which directly, Passage or Privacy, so the safest check is reading the full title rather than assuming from the shape name alone. Pairing a passage set on a closet door with a privacy version next door in the bathroom is normal within one hallway, since the two rooms simply need different functions.

Metro, Paris, and Rectangular read differently on a door

Rectangular is the simplest option of the three, a flat-edged plate that suits a door carrying almost no existing detail. Paris narrows and shapes the plate's ends, lending a rounder profile that pairs with more traditional trim. Metro lands in the middle, cleaner-lined than Paris but with more presence than a bare Rectangular plate, and shows up in both privacy and passage versions at a few different widths. Staying with one shape across a hallway of doors keeps the run looking planned rather than assembled piecemeal.

Matching a set to the door's width

Sizes here run from roughly 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" up to 3 1/2" x 13", and the larger plates generally suit a full-size interior door instead of a narrow closet slab. A plate too large for a narrow stile will overhang the door's edge once mounted, so comparing the door's width against the plate's listed dimensions before ordering avoids that mismatch. When two doors on the same hallway differ in width, it's fine to keep the same style at two different plate sizes rather than forcing one size onto both.
