Product Overview
This ice box set is an authentic re-creation of the original "Simmons Hardware" set used on most of the old ice boxes you see. All parts are hand-cast in solid brass. Requires #7 wood screws. Not lacquered so they may be easily aged or hand-polished.
Hand-Casting in sand molds just like the originals produces a reliable antique reproduction. Small imperfections are natural to this product and lend to the authenticity by the very nature of the process. These are high quality for the age in which they were originally produced but they are not machine perfect and never intended to be so. If your door is hinged on the right, you open it with right hand - so you require this right handed set. To see measurements for latch go to DL-B327R-POL and DL-B324-POL for hinge measurements. The additional images are from the DIY blogs Killer B Designs and Sawdust 2 Stitches. The photos show both left and right hand sets in use.
