Recently installed a vintage brass rim lock from Infinity Decor. The heavy mechanism feels solid, looks beautiful, and offers lasting durability. After dealing with cheap locks for years, it's refreshing to have hardware that feels truly built to last.
There's something special about hardware that has real heft to it—it makes you feel the quality every time you turn the key. How's the installation process compare to a modern deadbolt? Curious if it required any extra prep work on the door frame.
I love that you're prioritizing longevity over convenience. Cheap locks are such a false economy—they wear out fast and give a false sense of security. The brass patina over time will only make it look better.
