Abstract
An exemplary indicator assembly is configured for use with a lockset, and generally includes a backplate, a transfer link, and an indicator. The backplate has a first side and an opposite second side, and includes an opening. The transfer link is mounted for rotation relative to the backplate. The transfer link includes an input portion positioned on the first side of the backplate, an actuating portion positioned on the second side of the backplate, and an arm extending through the opening. The input portion is configured to drive the transfer link from a first transfer link position to a second transfer link position in response to the lockset transitioning from the first state to the second state. The indicator is positioned on the second side of the backplate and engaged with the actuating portion such that the indicator selectively displays a first indicium relating to the first state.
