Yes, mortise lock sets for pocket doors are expensive. I was shocked when I found that out too. And when you have double pocket doors it is worse. I think I might have bought mine from the Door Hardware Center.

Dekeoboe....Thanks I will check that out. Here is a pic of our home. I just posted it on what's your progress for June.

Lower volume products almost always cost more.

We have 3 pocket doors original to this house built in 1968. The locks all work well, and have been well used. Name on them is Weiser.

Thanks I will check out Weiser!

I bought the Stanley brand from Lowe's. They were around $12 each.
