Victorian mortise lock keeper in a bright brass-tone finish, the strike that receives the mortise lockset on a period-style door. Cast from heavy-duty architectural metal, it is built for daily use and a smooth latching action, and its finish is treated to resist corrosion and tarnishing. The long, narrow plate has two rectangular openings stacked at its middle, a countersunk screw hole near each end, and an all-over relief of fan quadrants, ladder bands and geometric zigzags. Two brass-tone slotted wood screws match its fixing holes. It suits historic renovations, vintage-inspired interiors, replacement of worn hardware and new builds that call for authentic period detail. Catalogue code: GMC-MLK9E-K
