Wooden lock plug, 2-pack. Many modern doors have large milled holes for standard modern handles and through-screw locks. Customers who want traditional fittings can therefore not choose them. But here is the solution. The wooden plug is used to plug oversized holes so that you can switch to traditional prints and key plates. The plug is fixed with glue in the empty holes.

Hand forged linseed oil fired iron in the shape of a snake. Originally from a farm in Åsgarn, southern Dalarna. Assembled with two hand-forged nails in each bracket. Can be placed horizontally or vertically.

The 1930s was the breakthrough year for functional design in Sweden. A quest for simple and functional forms, honest and clear materials and, not least, simplified mass production paved the way for a whole range of new building materials.

On the fittings side, especially the door fittings changed. Nickel-plated surfaces were used instead of brass, which had to be polished to keep its shine. The handles were now made of easy-to-clean bakelite instead of wood. And the new long plates combined the two functions of rosette and key plate in a single plate.

In addition, the door locks were standardized so that all the prints fit all the locks and all long plates were made with the same distance between the print and the hole for the key.
