It is a basic door bolt that would do the job but I was looking for something that was actually brass

Worked out well. I bought these as replacements for a French door in a 1940s craftsman home.

Lock arrived undamaged and packaged well. If I had to choose this lock again...would I...definitely not. Very difficult to get to stay in place when trying to screw it in. If the back didnt fall off the slide brackets, then the screws kept falling because they are small. Couldnt get the slide bolt to go all the way through the plate on the other side but maybe it doesnt. I saw another review that looks the same as mine. Definitely not intended for security. It does keep my closet door shut, wich was the reason for getting it. I got it on crooked ,but it will serve its purpose for now. Would not recommend for doors into your house but works for keeping my closet door shut . Thank you.

I needed one of these for my basement door I need to have it locked like this so that my grandkids cant open the door and fall down the stairs because he is at that age ld like the look of this its very sleek modern looking I prefer not to have the older locks that are like this I like the squareness of it I would recommend very sturdy nice quality!

This lock is very sturdy. The size is of the correct length. It has a smooth siding when open. Ive been wanting extra security. The color is a very shiny gold tone. Not showing on the door for safety reason.
