Long before modern hardware, doors were secured with cast brass rim locks. They were mounted proudly on the surface, built to be seen, and made to last a lifetime.

These vertical rim locks draw directly from that history, combining traditional casting with careful finishing to create a piece that feels as at home today as it would have centuries ago.

Featuring HWBS238-LO4 and HWBS221-LO5 Vertical Brass Rim Locks
