Mortise Door Latch

A small job, but an important one. This is an interior cottage door jamb which has seen better days.
The new, special order brass latch plate will camouflage most of the more egregious dings and scrapes of yesteryear. With proper hand chisel work all is well.

Of course, a sharp chisel helps to do the work on this vintage door jamb. (CLICK LINK HERE)
