Description
Very unusual set made by Branford. Not the most unusual pattern but the mortise is very unusual. It's for a rabbeted door but it's not a pocket door set because it uses a doorknob. I suppose it could be a pocket door but the door can't retract all the way into the wall like most of them do because of the knob. When I found this the mortise was locked. I took it apart to manually deactivate the lock so I could get the strike off. Also with the lock engaged the doorknob is locked. Rather ingenious actually and I've included a photo of the inside since it's so unusual. Included in this set is everything it would have had except I didn't find the key escutcheons in the hardware lot and as mentioned before I also don't have the key.
