What is a passage door knob?
A passage door knob is a non-locking knob that operates with a latch mechanism only. It is designed for doors that do not require privacy or keyed security.
Where should I use a passage door knob?
Passage knobs are commonly used on interior doors such as hallways, closets, pantries, laundry rooms, and other rooms where a lock is not needed.
Can I use a passage door knob on an exterior door?
Passage door knobs do not lock, so they are generally not recommended for exterior doors where security is needed. For exterior applications, consider a keyed entry lockset or a door setup that provides the security you want.
Are passage knobs easier to install than locking knobs?
Often, yes. Since passage knobs do not include a keyed cylinder or privacy lock mechanism, installation can be simpler on standard door preparations. Always follow the included instructions for your specific knob.
