Half Mortise Lock

Weststar Automatic · 2023-11-14 20:04:11

I'm restoring an old chest that had an half mortise lock. I would like to replace it. They are not to be found at Woodies or B&Q and tried the internet no luck. Is there a shop or a place online that sells these

Thanks Daithí for replying. The original is long gone. Checked out "brass box lock" on ebay they seem to be between buying and postage to come in at €65-€70. In my head I thought I could easy pick one up at any hardware store for €20-€30.
