A wrought iron English Carpenter style lock, manufactured and signed by J. Walker, circa 1845. The carpenter patented latch lifts up and down instead of moving in and out, hence the cutout keeper. The lock body itself measures 5" deep x 4 1/2" high x 3/4" without the keeper which mounts on the door jamb and measures 1 3/8" wide. The keeper is also signed J Walker and has the initials VR which indicated which monarch was reigning during the manufacture - in this case, Victoria. This lock is non-reversible, right hand only. Brass seal states J Walker Improved Lock with the standing eagle with wings spread. Lock is restored and complete with narrow neck brass knobs measuring 1 5/8" diameter. Original oval brass escutcheon measures 1 5/8" x 1 1/8" and with one original 3 1/2" key. The 1 1/2" brass rosette is our own replacement. Knobs are spaced to fit a 1 1/4" door - we will adjust them to fit another door thickness before shipping - please provide us with the door thickness under the Comments Section on the order form. Comes complete with slotted mounting screws.
