NowYou’reCookin’: Bought this when I needed to replace a spindle-type door knob on a house built in 1940. This matched up perfectly with the rest of the hardware. Works great!

Anthony Watton: I went out on a limb with this purchase not knowing for sure if these would actually fit on my old custom pine doors. Well they did work and are great quality. Will buy again if needed.

Earl Munyan: The house is from 1903, not sure when the door was put in but the bore hole was only 3/4” and this latch was the perfect size. It’s nice to keep the original doorknob as the spindle and handles were in good condition, and I didn’t have to change the bore hole. Seems pretty sturdy and was super easy to install.

Reese: I have an older door from around the late 1800s to early 1900s, all thick and heavy wood, the latch hole was cut out wrong and previous home owners just decided not to ever fix it because who cares about privacy? Any way I managed to get it in the door and attached a fluted door knob, works great although I suggest having proper tools before installation, it’s not hard but to help prevent damage to your door it’s probably best you do some research first.

I got them and began installing them and they would not slide into the hole . The stated hole dimensions are simply not accurate. Happy ending though as some minimal filing of the old shafts, especially taking off the sharp square corners fixed the problem. I would estimate I filed off about 1/64 "(just a little off each of the 4 sides) for each shaft to fit perfectly so I am quite satisfied , despite the extra work.They slide in and out smoothly with no play. It took probably 5 to 10 minutes to fit each one.They are very high quality latches, and very reasonably priced. If you need to modify your hardware to make them work this is the way I would do it as the old shaft metal will be much softer then the new latch hole metal(if...
