Hi .. I wanted a key operated internal door lock, I ordered a door knob type with a key one side and a bathroom type lever the other. I needed a 45mm backset catch and the lock I ordered was a 60-70mm, I just thought I would order an additional catch with a 45mm backset...easy. Prepared the door for the delivery (big hole) but when it arrived the lock had a thin flat spindle and the replacement 45mm catch was for a square type. Now there are interior door knobs with key type locks with a square spindle but they are sprung loaded and I need a dead bolt type (The door already has a "normal" handle). I cant find a latch with a 45mm backset for a thin flat spindle and I cant find a lock with a square spindle thats not sprung loaded. Does anybody know where I can get a deadbolt latch for a flat spindle and 45mm backset?
