From The Anvil Penny End Screw on Staple for Thumb Latch - Locking - Pewter Patina

The Penny End locking screw on staple is the keep for a thumb latch, used as a replacement for a missing part of an existing thumblatch set. It screws to the door frame instead of being driven in like a spike staple, which makes it the usual choice when fitting a latch to a thinner door. A leather strap and pin allow it to be locked for privacy.

The latch bar drops into the staple to hold the door closed, and the pin can be put through on its leather strap to stop the latch lifting. It is sold singly and supplied with matching stainless steel wood screws, and suits thumb latches with a penny end design.

About the Pewter Patina finish

This charming finish is well suited to characterful homes and interiors, where a more refined, yet traditional look is desired. Pewter Patina products work beautifully when used with natural timbers and oak, but can also be modernised by pairing them with painted finishes in a variety of colours. Hand forged from a durable base of steel, out Pewter Patina finish is an excellent example of how the unique manufacturing techniques add further detail to the natural charm of the base material. Pewter Patina products undergo an accelerated ageing process, creating a dark patina before being placed into barrelling machines, giving them the unique finish. During the final stages of manufacturing, a high quality, clear matt lacquer is applied for protection. A low maintenance finish, ideal for use in kitchens and bathrooms, or externally where damp conditions are expected.

Care and maintenance

An oily cloth can be used to wipe over the finish from time to time to remove any harmful deposits that build up on the surface of your product, this will also aid protection against any environmental elements. To increase the mechanical life expectancy of your products, we recommend regular oiling of all moving parts using the ‘3-in-1 Oil’ (92337). This process is also highly recommended during initial installation.
