A door handle set includes a handle assembly having a primary lock and having a handle rotatable about a primary rotational axis. A latch bolt assembly has a latch bolt. The latch bolt assembly is operatively coupled to the handle assembly, wherein a rotation of the handle results in a linear translation of the latch bolt. A supplemental lock has a second axis parallel to, and spaced apart from, the primary rotational axis. The supplemental lock has an actuator that is operable relative to the second axis. The supplemental lock is configured to selectively block the rotation of the handle regardless of the locking state of the primary lock.

An interconnection assembly includes a chassis, and cam plates that are rotatably coupled to the chassis to pivot about a plurality of rotational axises. An upper cam plate is operatively coupled to a deadbolt. The upper cam plate has a cam surface. A lower cam plate is rotatably coupled to the chassis to pivot about a second rotational axis. The lower cam plate is operatively coupled to an interior latch bolt handle. The lower cam plate has a cam slot. A linkage bar is rotatably coupled to the chassis to pivot about a pivot axis. The linkage bar has a first linkage portion having a first cam follower configured to operatively engage the cam surface of the upper cam plate and has a second linkage portion having a second cam follower operatively received in the cam slot of the lower cam plate.
