A deadlatch or nightlatch performs a similar function to a deadbolt, with the added convenience of being able to lock the deadlatch from the inside prior to leaving, then you simply pull the door closed behind you on your way out.
This residential grade nightlatch from RiteFit incorporates a hold-open feature, allowing you to lock the latch in the retracted position for ease of entry, and is operated by either the inside turn snib or by external key.
A surface mounted rim lock design with a solid brass latch that resists cutting, this diecast deadlatch is an easy way to increase the security of your home. The 5-pin tumbler mechanism can be keyed to match other keyway locks around your home, providing the convenience of a single key for all external access.
