Understanding Mortice Latch Types
Choosing Between Tubular, Flat & Upright Mortice Latches
The three main types of mortice latches all serve the same function – to keep an internal door closed – but are designed for different needs:
- Tubular Mortice Latches: Slim and round-ended, easy to install with minimal drilling. Best for modern internal doors. Available in backsets such as 45mm, 57mm, and 64mm. Ideal when fitting door handles on rose.
- Flat Mortice Latches: Rectangular, deeper body. Often chosen for restoration projects or heritage properties. Suitable for use with heavier knobs or rim-style door furniture.
- Upright Mortice Latches: Larger, boxier units that match the profile of a mortice sashlock (but with no lock). Used for visual consistency across doors with and without locks.
All types are compatible with our range of premium door handles and knobs and are offered in matching finishes to maintain a cohesive interior aesthetic.

What backset is best for mortice knobs?
For mortice knobs, a minimum 3” (76mm) latch is recommended – but if your door construction allows, a longer latch is often better. This ensures your hand is far enough from the edge of the door so you don’t bang your knuckles when turning the knob.
