ABSTRACT:
A tubular lockset includes a push button locking actuator with an automatic kick-off feature. A spindle assembly extends between an interior knob or lever and an exterior knob or lever. A latch assembly includes a bolt and a locking member that is movable between a locking position, where the locking member engages the spindle assembly, and an unlocking position. When the latch bolt is moved about ⅛ inch, a locking member is disengaged from the spindle assembly to unlock the lockset. The disengagement occurs independently of any movement of the interior knob or lever.
