Re: [papercreters] Door question



Definitely not your usual door handle. Is there evidence on the other side of a surface mounted locking mechanism? It appears that the latch would be a box on the inside of the door, with a matching box on the other door. Since there is no mortise on the edge then the lock was probably on the surface.

this is the sliding latch I mentioned. One at the top and one at the bottom, inside. After the first door is open you slide these to open the second one.

I did a quick search and did not turn up appropriate hardware. It might be easier, and definitely cheaper, to fill the holes and start over with standard modern locksets.

There was one more pic that I meant to include. It shows the holes for the hardware. Also my D key is sticking so if you ever see a word that looks weird try to picture it with a D somewhere in it.
