ABSTRACT:
A reversible door (10), having a defined top, includes two notches (11, 12) on opposite sides of the door. A template is provided to fit into one of the notches (11or12) and installer drilled holes are formed through the door proximate one of the notches (11or12). Then, a mortised handle assembly (15) is positioned through the holes formed in the notch. A hinge assembly is secured to the opposite side of the door from the handle assembly. A snap cover (14) is positioned in the notch that does not have the handle assembly (15). Therefore, the door (10) is reversible without having to be flipped end for end and provides for a reversible door having mortised hardware.
