Ives 991B619 Sliding Door Lock, Satin Nickel

worked great. By the way, the 2 1/4" dimension is the height of the cutout in the door and the 1 3/4" dimension is the depth of the cutout in the door so if you're replacing a latch, you can remove the old one and measure.

The finish on this item is inconsistent when compared to the product photo. Additionally, one of the units I received had surface scratches in the finish. The lock knob has very obvious flashing and defects from the mold that have left sharp edges. Only a single screw on each side holds the lock assembly together so I would not expect this to stand up to much more than casual use. All of the above add up to an item not worth the near $20 price, I'll find something else.

Mechanism broke apart on first use. Whole was cut so I cobbled some parts that fixed it temporarily but do not know if it will last.

These fit perfectly in my standard 2 1/4 inch cut outs, replacing the old (1996) brass that have been scratched, and only have flat plate rather then the round edges the new one has, much better looking. There is a snapping action when locking that requires a little technique but latches well.

great product
