Yale & Towne Monaco Doorknob Set

Cast iron doorknob set made by Yale & Towne. Monaco design. Cir.1910.  It has a unique 3 part compression shaft with a center groove that was only used for a few years. This should still, however, fit into most standard lock boxes. This set was for an exterior door with a pin on one side for security. The pin can be set in two different positions. Once the pin is set, the other knob is adjustable by sliding along the shaft and tightening down at any place along the way. The shaft can fit door thicknesses ranging from about 1 1/2″-2 3/4″ (measurement is without door plates).

This item may be shippable.

Yale

Yale Lock began around 1840 under Linus Yale Sr. in Stamford, CT. It specialized in handmade high security bank locks at the time. In 1852, Linus’ son joined the operation. In 1868, Henry Towne joined forces with Yale Jr. to become Yale & Towne. By 1894, Yale & Towne was a large name in the hardware industry and they purchased Branford Lock Works, incorporating some of their designs into their catalogues. In 2000, Assa Abloy acquired Yale but continues to produce under the Yale name.
