Product Information

Full details

The TIMCO Necked Internal Door Barrel Bolt is an essential hardware solution for homeowners and joiners looking to secure internal cupboards, cabinets, and recessed doors. Its primary benefit lies in the unique necked design, which bridges the gap between non-flush door surfaces and frames, ensuring a secure closure where standard flat bolts fail. While this bolt offers robust functionality for light-duty domestic applications, it is not intended for high-security exterior entrance doors due to its lightweight construction.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this bolt be used on exterior doors?

No, this is a light-duty bolt designed for internal joinery only.

Does it come with screws?

Yes, all necessary countersunk screws are included in the package.

What does 'necked' mean?

A necked bolt features a bent section in the sliding pin, allowing it to lock doors that are recessed from the frame face.

Can I mount this vertically?

Yes, the bolt is designed to function equally well in vertical or horizontal orientations.

How do I maintain the bronze finish?

Wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the finish.

Is this bolt suitable for a heavy fire door?

No, this is a light-duty bolt and is not rated for fire door applications.

Troubleshooting

Bolt pin does not align with the keeper plate.

Check if the door is sagging or if the frame has shifted. You may need to slightly adjust the position of the keeper plate or use a shim.

The sliding action feels gritty or stiff.

Remove any debris or paint residue from the channel and apply a small drop of lubricant to the sliding parts.

Screws are loose in the wood.

If the wood is soft or the screw holes have stripped, insert small wood slivers with glue into the hole before re-driving the screws.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ideal for non-flush door and frame configurations
  • Easy to install with included hardware
  • Classic bronze aesthetic suits traditional interiors
  • Flexible mounting (horizontal or vertical)

Cons

  • Designed only for light-duty internal use
  • Not suitable for high-security or exterior door applications
  • Manual slide mechanism requires physical access to the bolt

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the bolt, first hold the bolt and the keeper plate in the desired position, ensuring the sliding pin moves freely into the receiver. Mark the screw holes with a pencil, then use the provided countersunk screws to fix the components to the wood. Because the bolt is made of metal, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that might strip the bronze finish; instead, use a soft, dry cloth to keep it clean. If the movement becomes stiff over time, a tiny amount of light machine oil applied to the slide mechanism will restore smooth operation.
