Elevate your period interior with the Keswick Rim Lock AW100PBU from Alexander & Wilks — an authentic, solid-unlacquered-brass lock in a classic Victorian design. This elegant horizontal rim lock features a flanged case and integrated push‑snib for simple privacy control (ideal for bathroom or bedroom doors) and is not handed, meaning it fits both right‑ and left‑hung doors with ease. Supplied with a matching keep and two traditional skeleton keys, this lock brings both style and practicality to heritage homes and modern restorations alike.

Key Specifications:

• Lock box: 122 × 168 mm; Keep: 122 × 22 mm — designed for standard internal timber doors.

• Finish: Polished unlacquered brass, sourced from solid brass that naturally warms to a rich patina over time.

• Privacy snib: Slide-to-lock snib provides discreet privacy without engaging the key.

• Non‑handed design: Installs either orientation without modification.

• Includes: Surface‑fit fixings, keep plate, and two keys — door knobs sold separately.

Crafted in the UK, Alexander & Wilks’ original Victorian-style ironmongery reflects expert British design blended with contemporary precision. The Keswick rim lock pays homage to a traditional style that became a staple for pitch‑pine doors in the early 1900s.
