## Overview

The Prime-Line E 2294 Mortise Lock Assembly Kit is a premium replacement lock designed for vintage and antique interior doors. Featuring a durable cast steel body with a brass-plated finish, it includes a reversible latch bolt, a 2-3/8” backset, and a 9/32” square spindle drive compatible with up to 1/4” spindles. The kit comes complete with two skeleton-style keys and all necessary fasteners, enabling quick installation while preserving the authentic look of period homes.

## Description

When it’s time to replace damaged or missing vintage-style mortise door locks, look no further than Prime-Line’s E 2294 Mortise Lock Assembly Kit. The cast steel construction and brass plated finish closely match the mortises of period homes and are perfect for antique doors. The skeleton key locking system and vintage look of the faceplate won’t take away from the originality of the antique hardware throughout the home. The mortise lock assembly set has a 2-3/8 inch backset with a 9/32 inch square spindle drive that accepts a maximum spindle size of 1/4 inch. The kit includes a latch and deadbolt strike with fasteners (door knobs, square spindle, and trim plates sold separately) and two skeleton-style keys. Although the E 2294 lock set ships handed (to close in a certain direction), the latch can easily be reversed for opposite swinging doors. Installation of the brass-plated steel mortise lock set is quick and easy, and all mounting screws are included. The mortise lock easily slides into the existing door pocket for an economical replacement of damaged or missing vintage lock sets that will perfectly complement the antique design of your home. Installation Tip: This item cannot be used on pre-bored doors that have large, newer style door knob holes without first prepping them to receive this hardware. Installation Tip: Because the fasteners of the rosettes (purchased separately) require a solid surface to mount to, the large 2-1/8 inch (approximate size) holes must first be filled with a hardening filler, to then be able to receive the rosette fasteners. Products like Fix-It-All and Bondo Body Filler have worked well for some, but care must be used to avoid damaging any prefinished door surfaces during application and finishing. Installation Tip: Apply a small amount of Loctite ThreadLocker 271 to the set screw threads in the event they are loosening – Loctite must be purchased separately.

Review: Super Duper replacement - My old mortise lock on a beautiful 5 panel door I just bought and installed wasn't working with the key although it latched. Too much trouble trying to fix it so I bought this one. It fit quite well in the old mortise cutout, although I did have to grind off some metal top and bottom for a perfect fit. The spindle lined up as did the keyhole with my existing faceplate. It works great and locks great. Just a little chiseling on the door frame made it happen. And yes, it is reversible. I followed the video instructions. A piece of cake!. Some yokel here claims it can't work reversed. Obviously an incompetent mechanic. Now we know that it's easier to replace than to try to clean and fix the old lock.
Review: Excellent mortise lock for a great price - This mortise lock arrived yesterday and it is already in the door! I bought a wooden door for my 1922 bungalow, and I had to get it from one of those salvage/antique shops because back then unlike today, they made doors out of actual wood. I so lucked out when it already had the cut out done for the mortise lock. The only thing is, I had to find the right lock to fit and had no idea there was such variation amongst them. This lock was a gem. I only had to use the chisel slightly as the face plate was slightly taller. But otherwise it just slid right in and I attached the screws. I still have to attach the strikeplate, as the old mortise lock's strike plate was slightly lower. Every door in my house has the same style locks, strike plates, door knobs and face plates, so I was a little surprised the existing one did not fit. I figure if I managed to get the door hung (having to switch the hinges from right to left facing) I can handle re-doing the strike plate insert. The lock seems well made (it is only $14!) and the keys work well. Alas, they did NOT work in any of my other doors, so the keys must be specific to each lock. The only complaint I have is that they do not offer these in different colors. I really needed a bronze so I am going to have to paint the shiny gold (oh well). But the door worked well with the turn rod that went with the lock I accident threw out ten years ago (gnash of teeth). It was a real antique. I can't find anything wrong. The lock is in an interior door, so i do not expect it to endure any undo strain and should last a very long time. I will upload photos when I get the strike plate in.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is the face plate on the mortise lock assembly 7in in length**
A: No, the face plate for the mortise lock assembly is five and a half inches in length. The two back plates for each of the doorknobs and keyholes are seven inches in length.

**Q: Is this lock available with the latch reversed, or do I need to switch it myself?**
A: You have to swap it yourself.  One screw holds it together and to reverse, you just unscrew it, flip the latch and close it.  I had to do this for my bathroom.

A: The setback from the front of the plate to the middle of the doorknob/key hole is 2 3/8 inches.

**Q: What are box dimensions? Thickness, Faceplate, Box w/o Faceplate?**
A: Faceplate: 7/8" x 5 1/2".  Box: 5/8" x 3" deep x 3 9/16" high.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Handedness is Adjustable - But it's Not Easy
*by S***R on October 8, 2023*

I needed one with left handing for a closet door that I wanted to add a lock to. I read that this one is adjustable, so I looked up how to do it. I already had one of these lock sets, but the screw on the side plate was beyond stuck and completely stripped for some reason (it needs to be removed so you can access the inner mechanisms to change the handedness) so I bought another one. Fortunately when it arrived, the side plate screw was reasonably tightened and I was able to remove it with minimal effort. That was the easy part... The instructions say to be careful when opening it up because basically everything in there is connected by springs and levers and what not - do not disregard this warning! Just remove it very slowly. When I opened mine, the latch cam dislodged slightly, but everything else stayed in place. I immediately took a photo of how everything was arranged just in case. There are written instructions included, but in my opinion they could be a lot more thorough. And the main thing they neglect to mention (in the instructions as well as on this listing) is that once you do get the latch turned around and get the spring back in place, it is darn near impossible to keep everything in place while trying to close it back up. It takes a little maneuvering to get the side plate to slide back into place, and it is all to easy to accidentally bump something or take your hand off of the part you are holding in place that can set off a chain reaction of parts decoupling and/or moving out of place. At some point you have to take your hand off whatever you are holding in place ao you can actually close it all the way, and that is definitely the hardest part (or it was for me, anyway). I was finally able to do it by putting a door knob spindle into the hole it goes in just enough so that it would hold the latch cam in place while I cautiously closed the side panel. It took a few tries. You can only insert the spindle a little because if it goes through too far, you wont be able to close the side plate. And you have to make sure it is centered in there, because if you let it tilt just a little in any direction it will probably knock the latch cam (and possibly other stuff) out of place. There is probably an easier way to do it, but this is what eventually worked for me. It would probably be easier if you have another pair of hands to help you. I'm rating it 4 stars because aside from the extreme (and mostly unaddressed) difficulty of re-configuring it, it is a nice looking and effective piece of hardware that is built to last a long time (if you don't destroy it!).
