WC Bathroom Locks | Privacy Locks for Internal Doors

When it comes to internal doors, choosing the correct WC bathroom lock is just as important as selecting the right handles or hinges. Whether you're fitting out a home, office, hotel, school or commercial washroom, the right lock provides privacy, reliability and smooth operation.

At Garrison Locks, we stock a comprehensive range of WC bathroom locks from leading manufacturers, offering solutions for traditional timber doors, sliding doors and modern magnetic locking systems.

What is a WC Bathroom Lock?

A WC bathroom lock is a mortice lock specifically designed for bathroom and toilet doors. Unlike a standard sashlock, it allows the door to be secured from the inside using a thumbturn and released externally in an emergency using a coin or screwdriver.

These locks provide privacy without compromising safety, making them ideal for:

• Domestic bathrooms

• En-suite bathrooms

• Hotels

• Offices

• Schools

• Healthcare facilities

• Commercial washrooms

Types of Bathroom Locks

Standard Mortice Bathroom Locks

The most common option for timber internal doors. These work with separate lever handles and a bathroom thumbturn, providing a simple, reliable and cost-effective locking solution.

DIN Bathroom Locks

DIN bathroom locks are widely used on commercial buildings and modern architectural ironmongery installations. They offer consistent sizing, excellent reliability and compatibility with many European handle sets.

Magnetic Bathroom Locks

Magnetic bathroom locks operate without a traditional spring latch. The latch remains inside the lock body until the door closes, creating a quieter and smoother closing action while reducing wear.

Benefits include:

• Quiet operation

• Smooth closing

• Reduced maintenance

• Modern appearance

• Ideal for premium interiors

Sliding Door Bathroom Locks

Sliding bathroom doors require specialist hook locks rather than conventional latches. These locks securely engage when the door is closed while providing privacy in areas where space is limited.

They are ideal for:

• En-suite bathrooms

• Accessible washrooms

• Hotels

• Apartments

• Modern homes

Choosing the Correct Bathroom Lock

Before purchasing a bathroom lock, consider:

• Door thickness

• Backset size

• Case depth

• Forend finish

• Handing (where applicable)

• Compatibility with your chosen handles and thumbturn

Selecting the correct lock ensures smooth operation, easy installation and long-term reliability.

Finishes to Suit Every Interior

Bathroom locks are available in a wide range of finishes to complement both traditional and contemporary interiors, including:

• Satin Chrome

• Polished Chrome

• Stainless Steel

• Polished Brass

• Matt Black

• Polished Nickel

Matching your lock with your handles, thumbturns and hinges creates a coordinated, professional finish throughout the property.
