I bought this because my current sliding door is being used to confine one of my cats in the back of the house for bullying. My cats, on the other hand, know how to put their paw in a pocket door and open it if it's unlocked. Since this lock only has a twist handle on one side (the other side looks like a screw that you have to insert a flat object into), I decided to just buy another lock, remove the twist handle side, and put that on the other side of my current lock. Works perfectly. I couldn't find a lock with turning handles on both sides. The color goes perfectly with what I have and now I'm just glad I don't have to use a screwdriver to latch it when I'm on the other side of the door.
