Key Features

• Locking privacy: The push button lock secures the door from the inside for bedrooms and bathrooms while an included release tool allows emergency access from the outside.
• Signature Series quality: The lever combines designer styling with dependable construction so you get both aesthetics and long-term reliability.
• Reeded lever grip: The textured, reeded handle adds a modern, luxurious look and a comfortable grip that feels solid in hand.
• Premium chassis: The exclusive dual compression spring chassis keeps the lever straight and wobble-free, improving durability and the rotational feel over time.
• Adjustable fit: Fits standard doors 1-3/8' to 1-3/4' thick and the latch backset slides between 2-3/8' and 2-3/4' for straightforward installation.
• Microban protection: Built-in antimicrobial protection helps reduce bacteria on the lever surface for cleaner daily use.

Who It's For

The Mirada Reeded privacy handle is ideal for homeowners, renovators, or renters replacing bedroom and bathroom hardware who want a designer look without sacrificing function. Installers who need a reversible, keyless solution will appreciate the included release tool and adjustable latch, which speed fitting on standard interior doors.
