Locksets: Best of Both Worlds

Reviewed by:

No need to compromise the safety of a modern door look to get a vintage look. This cast iron mortise lock offers the best of both worlds.

The lock stops (on door's edge) can disable entry from outside while leaving the interior latch unlocked. On the inside, an oval turnpiece operates a keyed deadbolt for additional security.

Door handle, latch and keyplate are hand forged. Multiple locksets can be keyed alike for an additional $10 extra.
