Cast Iron Horizontal Rim Lock Set with White Porcelain Door Knobs

Installed the rim lock on an original 1835 door for a new bathroom built in my 1835 estate home. Couldn't find the same size lock as all the other doors, so code one that would go with the bath colors since it's on the inside of the door. Love it! The safety lock is a bit tight but we're working on adjustments.

I bought these to go on some old 4 panel wood doors that came out of my grandmother's house. The doors are over 100 years old and had the original locks and knobs on them. I was originally going to restore the old locks, but then I found these. AND they have keys. So for the price, to keep the old look and have functionality, I couldn't go wrong.

I bought this as a sample to see how it would compare to some original Rim Locks I salvaged from an 1890's house. I have to say it looks and operates just like my originals, I'd rate it as a 98% exact replica. Heavy and sturdy just like the originals. The only problem is it just looks too ""new"" but I'm sure after a few years of use it will look just as worn as an original. I only wish these locks were made in the USA.

Perfect in replacement of the original.

OK, I'm glad you asked. The body of the rim lock sets work absolutely great and their appearance matches what I have in my house. My problem was removing the knobs from the spindles. They were so tight on those spindles that I could not unscrew them by hand but had to utilize wrenches in order to separate them so that I could install them into the rimlocks themselves. This removed the finish from one of the door knob stems. These should have been able to be removed just by twisting them by hand, that's by hand, mind you, from the spindle to allow for their installation. Other than this, I liked the quality of the rest of the produce.

The rim lock set is as close to the oridgional as you can get. I was afraid i wouldn't find one, i searched for a while and was about to give up and a friend told me about House of Antque Hardware. It would have cost alot more to replace the door. Installation was so easy my 9year old grandson helped.

Product exceeded my expectations. Have received many comments on the antique look and finish.

Matches my other antique door knobs great!!!!

Our house is a Victorian built in 1889 and the door hardware is still original. Most of the Rim lock sets are worn out and don't work very well, my wife is always after me to 'fix' them. After many attempts I gave up and started searching the internet to find replacements, I came across your website and ordered one set to see how it looked and worked. I was very pleased and plan on replacing all the door rim lock sets in the house.

We are in the process of building our home and this was one of my husband's special requests. The product feels very sturdy and looks amazing. We'll post more when our contractor installs them
