Out-of-sight product for pocket doors
Von Morris, a brand from Pennsauken, New Jersey-based by Eric Morris & Company, rolled out a new series of concealed mount pocket door hardware locks. The new product expands the company’s pocket door hardware category.
The new designs, as with the entire Von Morris pocket door lock collection, include a spring-loaded edge pull that pops out and prevents the common design flaw of having the edge pull button right below the edge pull -- which tends to allow the edge pull to pop out and hit your thumb just between the fingernail and first knuckle, the company explained.
Eric D. Morris, principal designer and owner of Von Morris, described the new product as inspired by the “finely-tuned, precisely engineered mechanisms originally invented in the late 1880’s by some of the best vintage lock companies in the world.”
The strike plate has a spring loaded trap door; a dust proof strike detail that provides a clean appearance, the company said.
The new Von Morris concealed mount pocket door lock is available in three contemporary trim styles and is stocked in four finishes, but can be special ordered in any of 33 finish options.
