FAQs

What material is the Dzina Barrel Bolt made of?

The bolt itself is made of steel, and the visible components have a polished brass finish. The overall construction is described as heavy-duty.

What are the dimensions of this barrel bolt?

The dimensions are 100mm x 25mm, which is approximately 4 inches.

Is this bolt suitable for external doors?

No, this barrel bolt is intended for interior doors. It is not designed to meet the security requirements of external doors.

Do I need any special tools to install it?

Basic tools like a screwdriver are required. A drill may be helpful for creating pilot holes, especially in hardwood.

How do I clean the polished brass finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that can damage the finish.

Can this bolt be used on a sliding door?

While primarily designed for standard hinged doors, it could potentially be adapted for certain types of sliding doors if the mounting surface allows for secure installation.

What is the weight of the product?

The product weighs approximately 0.176 pounds.

Troubleshooting

Bolt is stiff or difficult to slide.

Ensure there are no obstructions in the bolt path. Check that the mounting screws are not overtightened, which can warp the housing. Apply a small amount of lubricant to the bolt mechanism.

Screws do not tighten securely.

The pilot holes may be too large. Try using slightly larger screws or filling the existing holes with wood filler or dowels before re-drilling pilot holes.

Bolt does not align with the keep/receiver.

Slightly adjust the position of the bolt or the keep on the door/frame. Ensure the door is properly aligned and not sagging.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction for reliable performance.
  • Easy to operate with a smooth sliding mechanism.
  • Classic polished brass finish enhances interior aesthetics.
  • Simple installation with included screws.
  • Suitable for various interior doors like bedrooms, bathrooms, or utility rooms.

Cons

  • Primarily for interior use; not a high-security external lock.
  • Steel bolt may be susceptible to rust if exposed to excessive moisture.
  • The 100mm length may be insufficient for very large or heavy doors requiring extra bracing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Position the bolt on the door frame or door edge where desired.
  2. Mark the screw hole locations.
  3. Drill pilot holes (if necessary, especially in harder woods).
  4. Secure the bolt using the provided screws.

Compatibility:

This barrel bolt is designed for use on most standard interior wooden doors. Ensure the door and frame have sufficient thickness to accommodate the bolt mechanism. It is not designed for metal doors or UPVC doors without appropriate adapters.

Care:

To maintain the polished brass finish and smooth operation:

  • Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the surface.
  • For best performance, occasionally apply a small amount of lubricating oil (like silicone spray or graphite powder) to the bolt mechanism and slide.
  • Ensure the screws remain tight to prevent loosening over time.
