Looking for a rare rim lock

FriendlyBen

Hi,

We are restoring a double door which had a Rim lock set.
According to the old paint traces the location and shape of the escutcheons and the 3 holes we were able to approximate the size to 6 ¾″ by 3 ¾″.
We have the 3 escutcheons but the lock, knobs and keeper was absent.

Please see attachment for an approximate drawing.

Anybody knows a brand or model to orientate my research?
Or most likely someone have it for sale?

Thank you

I have one Rim Lock in my collection but I’m not sure it’s what you are looking for. Photo attached! PrissyMissy

Hi PrissyMissy,

Unfortunately this one is horizontal, we are looking for a vertical.

Thank you very much

Hi Tom,

This one seems very close to what I am looking for!

Do you have a web site where I can see pictures of them and order?

Thank you

We are the manufacturer’s local stockist-except we don’t stock that particular one (and I doubt anyone else does either) so there may be a delay. I havent checked the price but I think they are about £130 at a guess. If you are interested then I will look them up.
Cheers
Tom
