    Half Mortise Box Lock Measurement Diagram


    Jewelry Box Locks are a great size for small boxes, silver chests and game cases. This lock is well made with a dependable lever mechanism.  The quality is evident. Key has decorative shape.

    These are half mortise type locks for lift lid furniture. This quality lock has a brass face plate, box and strike. Once installed, lock is fitted into a partial cut out in box interior. Strike attaches underneath surface of lid. When lid is closed, strike drops down into lock. Key turns two lever mechanism to secure lid providing a higher level of security than cheaper versions. Once in place, lock is hidden from exterior view. Made in England.

    The backset measurement is necessary if selecting a replacement lock:
    • If you have original lock: measure distance between top edge of lock to lock pin in center of keyhole. This measurement is known as the backset.
    • If original lock is not available, determine backset by measuring: distance from center of keyhole (where lock pin will be) to top edge of box.
    • The replacement lock's backset measurement must match location of keyhole in furniture.

    Installation os great locks made easier.

    Great locks for the jewelry boxes I am making. I did sacrifice one lock-plate from the eight I recently purchased to make its installation easier. I soldered three short screws into the holes of the latch plate then put the latch plate on the lock that was mounted on the jewelry box. I closed the lid and gave it a light tap, thus marking the location of the holes that would be drilled to attach the lock plate. I bet the manufacturer could make and furnish this modification which sure makes the accurate installation of the latch plate easier.

    Good hardware, great support

    First time buying this sort of thing, so I had a bit of learning to do. The responses with help were timely and valuable! I'd buy from Paxton again!

    Jewelry Case Lock and Key

    Years ago, I built several of of the jewelry cases featured in Woodsmith No. 46 (August 1986). It was a most satisfying project, so recently I decided I needed to build another. However, the original supplier referenced in the plans, no longer carried the locking hardware. But then searching the web, I found Paxton Hardware had a very similar product which filled the bill. Perfect size, great quality and competitive price, so the project is nearing completion. Thanks for a great product!
