How To Measure Your Door Thickness
When you buy a new door knob, door lever, deadbolt or front door handleset you need to know what your door thickness is. Let’s go over why it’s important and what you have to do to get the right measuremnt.
Your knob, lever, etc. will have two sides to it that will go on either side of the door. These two sides will be connected by screws. These screws must be long enough to fit through the door and secure the two sides of the lock together but not too long or else they’ll stick out too far and ruin the aesthetic and the functionality of the door.
So when you know you’re door thickness you really know what size screws you’ll need to put your lock together.
To measure your door thickness just open your door and look at it so you have the same view as the image above. Hold a tape measure flat to the edge of the door and record the measurement.
Most doors are 1 3/4″ thick. This is the standard measurement for all of our locks and the size of the screws included. If your doors are thicker than 1 3/4″ that’s okay! We can use something called a thick door conversion kit that includes longer screws to accomodate thicker doors. If your door is thinner your options are a little more limited but we may be able to figure something out.
Call 1-800-272-7734 to ask us about door thickness related problems or Ask Jim! We’ll get back to you within a few hours!
