Backset

Backset is measured from the edge of the door to the center of the bore hole.
Commercial doors use a 2-3/4'' backset.
Interior residential doors use primarily a 2-3/8'' backset, but doors leading to the exterior are commonly 2-3/4''.

NOTES: If you do not know a product's base material, use these general guidelines.
LOCKS: Primarily use brass and bronze base material.
HINGES: Primarily use brass and bronze base material, but have many exceptions. Stainless steel finished hinges use stainless steel base material. Bommer double-action spring hinges use steel base material.
Always check with your material supplier if the finish is in doubt.
