Occasionally, the customer wants to select hardware locally or have their installer provide it. Our standard Prehang does not include decorative hardware prep or installation because we do not know the pattern or precise fit of the hardware you will be using. However, we can provide basic prep on a prehung unit for the five most popular hardware patterns:
- Baldwin 6021 (or similar) Mortise Lock. No strike prep.
- Single-hole. 2 3/8″ backset. Strike hole only.
- Single-hole. 2 3/4″ backset. Strike hole only.
- Double-hole. 2 3/8″ backset. 5 1/2″ offset. Strike holes only.
- Double-hole. 2 3/4″ backset. 5 1/2″ offset. Strike holes only.
Once your door is prepped, you must acquire hardware that will fit within that pattern.

We heartily suggest that you purchase your hardware here. We offer hundreds of designs and finishes from several manufacturers. You need only select the manufacturer, design, and interior knob style. We will take care of all the technical aspects, ensuring proper fit and function. Since we have the hardware here, we can perform a complete installation, rather than just prep. Best of all, the installation of hardware purchased here is free-of-charge, amounting to a significant savings.
