My Old House Online

An online community for people who love old houses.

I recently purchased replacement salvage french doors for the front of my house from an architectural salvage dealer in York, PA, USA.  In order to match my hardware to the existing original vestibule door, I have been scouring eBay and other sources for two years trying to locate what I need.  I have found some, but not all of the parts I need.  Please see the attached photo for reference.  It is a picture of the inside door trim.  I am in need of the outside plate, as well as two matching knobs for this set.  I have the mortise lock already.  The hardware was manufactured by the Reading Hardware Co. out of Reading, PA, USA and dates to approximately 1895-1897.  I do not know what the plate pattern is called, but the knob pattern is called "Mura."  Any help the online community can provide would be appreciated.  Thanks!

I haven't been lately but we have a great store up here called www.rehouseny.com; they have a large amount of salvage anything including hardware. I didn't see any on there site, but they are a charity organization and have much more in the store than on their site. If you email them they are pretty helpful and may be able to tell you if they have anything. Good luck!

Thanks, Megan.  I'll email them and check.  They have a great website!

Good references.
