Quality & Craftsmanship
Every Davenport Rim Lock is carefully hand-polished and assembled by skilled craftsmen to deliver an authentic period look. The unlacquered finish allows for natural oxidation, giving the lock a warm, lived-in patina that deepens with age. This timeless surface can easily be polished back to a bright finish, giving you the freedom to maintain its shine or embrace its aged appearance.
The heavy solid brass body ensures reliable performance and durability, while the intricate detailing showcases the artistry of traditional British ironmongery.
