Prime-Line E 2798 Mortise Keyed Lock Set, Matte Black Knob, Single Pack

I opened up the mechanism to see if it was reversible, and springs and pieces went flying. Fortunately the instructions do have a good picture of the innards, and it appears the image shows the striker flipped, so it sort of has reversing directions. To get the cover back on, it helped to stick a screwdriver through the cover and through where the knob would go through. That part craves flight, so needs something to keep it in check. From there it’s a bunch of jiggling and aligning tabs. There’s a spring backer tab that I fought the most, then the striker needs pushed in slightly, then the knob pass-through can be shoved into place, and the striker body has a prong that pokes out of a slot in the cover. If the cover doesn’t sit flat, it’s one of those out of place. It’ll make sense once in there, but if it doesn’t go back together smoothly, this will help with troubleshooting. And after all of that, the holes and chamber didn’t align with my old unit. It was about a half inch shorter. If it were taller I’d carve out to make it fit, but I didn’t want to add filler and re-stain this vintage door. The face plates and knobs were the same size, so I was able to swap over all of that. I mostly wanted to get rid of 90’s gold, so mission accomplished, even if I had to retain vintage guts. The striker and deadbolt in this kit are gold, so best of both worlds with my setup.

This was absolutely beautiful in color. I have 100 year-old house and I waited a long time to find this with a plate that was affordable.

Yes, these knobs look nice. But that is about it. They jam all of the time. Some times the knobs just spin and fall off without the door actually opening. Currently as I’m writing this review, I am stuck in my room with my daughter and my husband is 2 hours away because once again the knob is jammed. What a waste of money!!!!!

Easy to install, looks great but the inside handle bar is kinda tricky. May be a problem later on.

Great value for the money! I updates my l locks on my home and they look great. I wanted to switch to black and old door knobs were a brass color.

Hard to turn knobs, gets stuck all the time. Not a good product.

Easy to install, look awesome, and very happy

Worked perfectly.

Didn’t come with screws.
