New York Screen Door Latch Set With 1 1/2" Backset

Years of trying to fix the old one, and this works way better than any of my previous attempts to repair! The front screen door works like I suppose it did when it was new! I did have to spray some white lithium inside it to get it to work smoothly, that was a problem. But that fixed it. Silly to say I'm overjoyed, but I sort of am. It didn't take too long at all since the customer service had warned me about having to modify the mortise since they are all unique. That was true, but I solved it pretty easily cutting a block and a negative space inside the block, slide it in to the now smaller hole, and viola. The customer service is outstanding

This was perfect vintage hardware for the custom wooden storm door that we had made.

I have used over 20 of these door sets for my custom screen doors. The mechanism needs a lot of lubricant, the door top plates don't always line up with the mechanical box ( can tell this by my router jig ) and the decorative plate holes shouldn't line up from opposite sides - you need to run the screws in at an angle so they do not conflict with each other - still these are the best door sets I have found for my application but there was a huge learning curve needed to install them properly. Also - every client has complained about the interior handle being much too small - I agree 100%.

Have used apx 20 of these doors sets so far for my custom screen doors - 100% of customers complain about the size of the interior handle - I also must use a special lubricant to make the mechanism work properly - it is the best option on the available market for the historic period of my doors - ps - you'd love the custom doors I'm making for Phoenix historic homes...

Matches the restoration genre throughout our home

We had struggled with a standard screen/storm door latch set, solid brass though it was, for 6 years. Our door is wood framed. The latch set would not keep the door latched and it blew open multiple times with dire results. This latch set is infinitely more solid feeling and actually keeps the door latched! Excellent quality.

I had to do an exchange as I bought the wrong part initially. The team handled everything with no problem. The new piece is fine and will provide many years of service.

Great product, i use these alot , but the knob and lever are VERY small.

Linen cabinet. Needed hardware similar to regular size door only smaller. Worked out great. The Antique Brass finish was just right. You'll need to mortis the door.

Please include mounting and operations instructions. Otherwise very nice.
