    Default Herring & Co Parts

    Hello Brian
    Thanks for your reply!
    Will get the lock apart to find out what it needs -
    Think its just 1) missing spacer (s) between the tumblers as it has tumbler drag and 2) brass Pivot hold down washer and screw for the Bolt

    Will Post pictures once i can open the door (I currently have all the hinges removed for painting and plating) - Jim
