Flush bolts and barrel bolts explained

Flush bolts and barrel bolts are two different types of door hardware used to secure a door leaf, most often the inactive leaf of a pair of French or double doors. This Zanda range covers both styles, so you can pick the bolt type and finish that suits your doors.

What is a flush bolt

A flush bolt is mortised into the edge of the door so it sits flush with the surface rather than protruding. Flush bolts are commonly fitted top and bottom on the inactive leaf of a rebated double door set, holding that leaf firmly in place while the active leaf operates normally with its own handle and lock.

What is a barrel bolt

A barrel bolt is a surface mounted slide bolt, fixed to the face of the door rather than recessed into it. It works by sliding a bar across into a keep, and is generally simpler to fit than a flush bolt since the door does not need to be routed out. This range also includes straight and radiused reverse barrel bolt variants, as well as a heavy duty barrel bolt option for doors that need a sturdier fitting. Barrel bolts are a practical choice for gates, cupboard doors and secondary doors where a visible fitting is not a concern.

Choosing between flush bolts and barrel bolts

If you want a discreet, integrated look on a pair of doors, particularly French doors, a flush bolt is generally the better option since it sits within the door edge. If straightforward, visible operation and easier installation matter more, a barrel bolt is a simpler alternative. This range includes both, so you can match the bolt type to the door and the finish already used elsewhere in the home.

Finishes available

Zanda offers this hardware in Brushed Nickel, Ember Bronze, Matte Black and Satin Brass, giving a spread of cool and warm metal tones so flush bolts and barrel bolts can be matched to existing door hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a flush bolt and a barrel bolt?
A flush bolt is mortised into the door so it sits flush with the surface, while a barrel bolt is a surface mounted slide bolt fixed to the face of the door. Flush bolts give a more discreet finish, while barrel bolts are simpler to fit since no routing is needed.
Where are flush bolts typically used?
Flush bolts are most commonly fitted top and bottom on the inactive leaf of a pair of rebated French or double doors. They hold that leaf securely in place while the active leaf opens and closes normally with its own handle.
Where are barrel bolts typically used?
Barrel bolts are often used on gates, cupboard doors and secondary doors where a visible surface mounted fitting is not a problem. They are a straightforward option when ease of installation matters more than a flush, recessed look.
What finishes are Zanda flush bolts and barrel bolts available in?
Zanda offers this range in Brushed Nickel, Ember Bronze, Matte Black and Satin Brass, so you can match the bolt to your existing door hardware.
Are there different barrel bolt styles in this range?
Yes, alongside a standard straight barrel bolt, Zanda also offers reverse and radiused reverse barrel bolt variants, as well as a heavy duty option for doors that need a sturdier fitting.
