Finding an exact match for an old lock is not always possible, as only a limited amount of sizes are now made. |
Antique Drawer Locks are used on furniture drawers, desk lids and cabinet doors hinged right. They cannot be used on doors hinged left due to placement of keyhole in lock.
These quality reproductions have a heavy extruded brass plate with a steel box. Secure lever locking mechanism provides excellent reliability.
Strikes are not necessary with half mortise locks and are therefore not included. Orders with multiples of the same cabinet drawer lock will be shipped keyed alike. Made in England.

Replacing Half Mortise Locks
Keyhole location measurement is critical. Replacement lock-keyhole-location must match location of keyhole in furniture.
To measure: easiest to measure old lock, if you have it:
- Lock Keyhole Location: distance between selvedge-edge – where bolt shoots through, to lock pin. This measurement is known as the backset.
- Furniture Keyhole Cutout Location: distance between furniture-edge to estimated location of lock pin in furniture keyhole.
