solid brass old warded kaye leeds lock must be vintage i think , the levers in this lock are what makes it special ive never seen one in any archives dont know much about it at all, the latch also locks up... enjoy.

Double warding,THROWN,and locked what a lock this would have been high security 100 years ago.

Nice levers indeed!

Those double wardings drive me nuts.
