Description

The finish is left unlacquered for authenticity. Ordinarily when regularly used, this product develops it's own patina, but should you wish to afford additional protection, we recommend Maintenance Wax be applied, which will give the iron a protective seal against any moisture. The cast iron goes through a 5 stage hand finishing process to achieve a natural, authentic finish that will age naturally over time, perfect for traditional and period properties. This Davenport rim lock keep (sometimes called a staple) is created using original designs unique to this range. The cast iron offers a heavy quality look and feel and showcases the rich, natural beauty and texture of the metal and the brass design on the front of the keep offers decorative detailing. Light surface rust may be present or develop when used in damp environments. These cast iron rim lock keeps are perfect if you are restoring an old property and need to replace lost keeps for old rim-locks. If desired, this can be easily removed by using light oil (such as WD 40) and a fine grade wire wool. Supplied in SINGLES with fixings. However, they can also be used to great effect as a drawer or cupboard pull. PLEASE NOTE: This product is of a rustic nature and is designed to both look and feel as if it has been in use for many years. You may wish to order a refundable sample before purchasing in larger quantities to make sure it suits the application. This product is created using genuine cast iron.
