Modern bathroom door lock

We’re having our old internal doors replaced with oak ones and handles similar to these:

what is the name/type of lock we need for both bathrooms? We don’t want to older style ‘slide across’ bolt (like on a garden gate) we’d like a modern thumbscrew one that matches the handles. Are they fitted as a separate unit below the handle?

Thumbturn. They are a separate unit. This one looks like a match:

Hey! What type of doors do you have or want to install? I am also doing repairs in the bathroom and we have not enough space. Do you have any ideas what is better to put?
