Love this Rim Lock!

Comments:

Love it. Fits our 1920s house perfectly.

Loved it!

Comments:

I bought three of these rim sets to install in my 100+ year old home. I have some of the originals still in my house, and when I received these, you could hardly tell a difference. The porcelain knobs were identical in look and feel. The rim sets were very close to the ones I had, just a slight difference on where the keyholes lined up. I was really impressed with the customer service I received as well. One of the knobs did not attach properly so I sent HOAH an email describing the issue. They replied to my email the next day, and sent me a replacement that day at no charge. Would definitely recommend!

Match the originals in Victorian home

Comments:

Good quality, matches the ones in our house well enough. Be careful not to flip the privacy latch on your way out of the room, though; it's a bear to get back in!

I own 100 yr old house. Old door knobs and lockset were painted over many times, keys were lost and locks wouldn't work anyway. Bought 1 set to try out on 1 of 6 doors. Worked perfectly. All holes matched up great. Lock and knob work perfect. And for the people that say the knob shaft is too long, they are made to be cut down.measure thickness you need and cut down shaft to size. Very easy took 30 min to install. Will def. buy the rest for the other doors.. Great Product! Great Quality!

New as authentic as can be

Comments:

Quality heavy gauge...this rim lock set replaces a prior set that seems to have been made of cast aluminum. This reproduction exactly replicates the dimensions of the one I am replacing, so not tinkering necessary to achieve a fit. The reproduction is also cast iron, so sturdy for use in our back door, the most frequently used door in our home. And finally, we have a key (cool authentic skeleton key) so we can use the locking mechanism.

New Life for an old Door

Comments:

The old rim lock latch on our cellar door died years ago. It was just push open, pull close. I still find myself trying to push the door open, forgetting that I have a beautiful working rim lock that requires turning the knob. Imagine. This set is solid, easily reversible, and handsome, and a snap to install as it fit right where the old lock was. Top quality item, and super customer service made this a smooth operation. I would use their products without question.

Nice piece of kit!

Comments:

Very nice rim set -- well made and very heavy. Conceptually easy to install; however, when installing on a 130 year old door one will likely need to bring creative carpentry skills to bear due to door/foundation settling creating misalignment from the original installation. A bit of an odd comment but the lock set is almost too well made! My prior experience with rim sets is that they were inexpensive pieces of hardware used in modest (at best) construction. This piece of hardware is a solid, cast iron with well machined heavy brass components and keys -- it almost seems too nice for our modest, very working class, old house. That said, I really appreciate the quality and smooth operation.

not satisfying

Comments:

the rim lock have a conception problem, it does not works well, even after I received an other one supposed to work properly. I do not understand why, as I already bougnt the same item(the design has changed since) a few years ago and it works very well since.

Perfect for my project

Comments:

Looks great on my restoration project for a 1880's general store.

perfect match for old locks

Comments:

This lock replaced a broken lock and had to look right with 2 other locks on doors into the same room. When it arrived it turned out to be exactly the same size and detailing. Better than the old locks because it came with keys that work.
