It features a 3 lever locking mechanism for smooth action, dependable performance, and a high level of security. Constructed of durable steel with a brass selvedge, this high-quality product provides protection for your belongings.

    Install Considerations

    • Strikes were rarely used with full mortise locks. Typically wood is notched to accept bolt. However if preferred a generic #4521 strike is available separately.
    • When using on doors: use on right and left hand doors. Place lock to account for keyhole location.
    • When using on drawers: Keyholes are off-center requiring lock to be positioned accordingly.
    • Lock fits into cut out pocket in top-edge of drawer or side-edge off door. Once installed only brass selvedge and keyhole are exposed.

    Cabinet Lock

    The lock works perfectly, unfortunately, the faceplate, strike plate and key does not come in oil rubbed bronze and they key is plated, so I was unable to age the finish.
