RARE & VERY LARGE VINTAGE READING HARDWARE ENTRY MORTISE LOCK w/NEW CYLINDER & KEYS (8907)

Vintage:  Probably Mission era, circa 1890-1910, completely reconditioned inside and out, with new oil rubbed bronze cylinder lock inserted with two keys.  Large and heavy brass faceplate with body of the lock clearly maker marked 'RHC' for Reading Hardware of Reading, Pennsylvania, one of America's great manufacturers of builder's hardware during the second half of the 19th & early part of the 20th Century. 

Dimensions as follows:

Brass front plate measures  9 1/8" long, 1 1/4" wide, 3/16" thick. 

From the center of the key cylinder hole to the center of the knob post hole is 4 1/2".

Box is 3 1/4" deep from the back of the front plate and it is 6 3/4" top to bottom.  Screws are on 8 1/4" centers.  Step back from the front of the front plate to the center of the knob post hole is 2 1/2".  Has interior slot for a thumb lock.  The lock is made for a post and knob operated entry handle with a 3/8" square post.    

A brand new replacement Security Solutions oil rubbed bronze finish cylinder with two keys has been installed.  

(This is a very heavy and quite well made mortise lock.  We have opened it and cleaned it and checked all the springs and fittings.  It actually shows very little use.) 

Very clean inside and out, no rust, functions very well, heavy duty and with keys!

P.F. Corbin was right:  Great houses do deserve great hardware!
