SALVAGED EDWARDIAN DOOR RIM LOCK SET key knob handle brass Royal Letters Patent
Rim lock set, which I have lovingly restored, and includes a rim lock, brass handle & back plate, key, escutcheon, and cast steel keep, which are in good working condition. An attractive worn metal finish, with a spring loaded latch and deadbolt actions. To the front of the lock is a brass disk which reads WARRANTED BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT No 3404 J. L & Co SECURE LEVER. There is a brass escutcheon keyhole, and an old key which works the dead bolt well. The brass handle has two brass knobs with the first knob being permanently fitted onto the steel spindle, and the other knob screws onto the other end of the steel spindle, and is secured with a grub screw. The round cast brass back plate fits over one of the knob ends. The later cast steel keep complements the lock. You will need to find some round head screws for the lock and keep, ans some small counter sunk screws for the brass back plate, to attach the rim lock set to your wooden door. The term BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT means that the King or Queen of Great Britain has given their royal approval for this lock to be manufactured and used in royal residences, and therefore would have been of higher quality. So, what makes this rim lock better than others made at the same time? Size of the makers disk is larger than usual.

The design of the case has more design features than other similar examples with precise raised detail. The applied brass is also of a good shape and of interesting design. The mechanism inside the lock is more usually used in safe or cupboard locks, which also sets it apart from those used in mass produced rim locks. The rim lock and brass handle have signs of wear of knocks, and scratches, which is to be expected in items of such age (please see photographs), which gives the set its individual character. This rim lock measures approximately 159 mm (6 1/4") wide, and 127 mm (5") high, from the centre of the handle spindle to the outside of the lock is 111 mm (4 3/8"), and from the centre of the key hole to the outside of the lock is 54 mm (2 1/8").

This rim lock and handle set can compliment both period and modern internal wooden doors.
