what is meant by latch type?
A. The latch type refers to the inner part of the door (the part that is not seen from inside or outside), where the latch is set in. Some hollow doors use a drive in type latch, which means it does not have a plate with the screws to hold it in place. Most common doors use the round/square latch which is screwed in.
