Mortise Lock with Solid Brass Faceplate - 2 1/4" Backset in Antique-by-Hand

This classic mortise lock is a reproduction of those used during the early 20th century. It features a 1/8” thick solid-brass face plate and interior components with a heavy cast zinc case. For added elegance, our exclusive Antique by-Hand finish ages gracefully over time into a beautiful natural patina. The set comes complete with two brass skeleton keys and is reversible for left or right-hand doors.

When using this as a replacement lock, it is important to measure existing cutouts on your door, including the backset, face plate, and mortise pocket. Some modification of your cutouts may be required.
