Look for Eastlake Door Hardware

Hi. Can anyone recommend a salvage yard or similar that sells Eastlake door knobs and hardware. I’m familiar with the online sites but would prefer to shop local if possible. I’ve tried the Big Reuse already -nothing there. Many thanks Jason

Well, the thing about posting a want ad to all members of the ADCA is that you’re not just speaking to pricey websites. Collectors and vendors alike sometimes buy box lots in order to get that one piece they really want….and then the pieces they didn’t necessarily want to acquire just sit. So you may be better off picking up singles here and there through an ad, rather than assuming you’ll be dealing only with professional vendors, and have to pay a fortune for a set. Also, I found that when I joined, and introduced myself as a newbie restoring a house, I got sympathy and appreciation from other members, as I was someone new who clearly respected the quality of original pieces…and that sympathy seemed to translate into good deals, particularly from individual collectors. Again, this was quite awhile ago. But it may be worth a shot.

You still might want to use them; they’ll look fine and if you eventually find something you like better it’s easy to switch door knobs. If you buy vintage Eastlake doorknobs from a pricy website you’re practically guaranteed to find others at a fraction of the price at some out of the way antique shop soon after. [YES, I’ve had things like that happen].

I think you’re right. Too floral, literal and ornate. Thanks.

They’re beautiful but don’t look especially Eastlake to me Victorians weren’t purists about style so d suggest using the doorknobs I’d you like them.

Update. First off, my partner found an extra 3 doorknob pairs in a bag leftover from before we bought the house. A major win that will save some $$$.

Second, having consulted www.antiquedoorknobs.us I don’t whether our knobs are actually Eastlake or just general Victorian. We live in a neo-grec house with definite Eastlake features . The original manufacturers catalog shows they were produced within the Eastlake period but describes from as being from the Classic school of design.

Does anyone know if that means they are not Eastlake afterall???

Thanks.

Hi fiordiligi

I checked out the website you recommended and their sister site

https://www.antiquedoorknobs.us/

Wow!! The level of detail is extraordinary and. it’s surprisingly addictive . I’m going to page through all 2,600 until I find the ones that are in our neo-Grec home.!!!

Good find. Thank you

If I needed a number of matching pieces I’d probably go with reproductions. Besides Van Dykes I think that House of Antique Hardware is good. I agree that lacquered bright brass looks cheap, but uncoated polished brass can be allowed to tarnish (AKA develop a patina).

Glad to help. If you really get into this stuff, you might want to take a trip to their next convention. I went to a couple of them, and the displays are really mind-blowing. The figural pieces command the highest prices, and the rarer bronzes manufactured by the Metallic Compression Casting Company (later Russell and Erwin) are works of art – some of the finest nineteenth century casting produced in the US. Some of these are still adorning institutional buildings in Bed Stuy and elsewhere.

Hey fiordiligi

Thanks very much that sounds like a great resource. I also have the same amount in my budget to spend …. here’s hoping. 🙂

Go to the Antique Doorknob Collectors of America website, at https://www.antiquedoorknobs.org/ . Join it. They publish books cataloging thousands of antique patterns (assigning code numbers to the patterns for thousands of knobs (with photos), and there are members who also collect hinges, doorbells, etc.), and their website etc. is read by a lot of professional vendors of antique hardware, as well as individual collectors. They have a facebook page, which I haven’t looked at. But when I bought my house back when, I had one original doorknob (it matched those on houses on either side of me). A local hardware store told me about ADCA, and I joined, looked up the catalog number of my doorknob, and posted a want ad for that number in the newsletter. It turned out that the pattern was relatively common, and I got quick responses from dealers and collectors all over the country. In no time I had more than enough doorknobs and matching keyhole covers to restore my entire house…and spares left over for my neighbors who needed a few. I grant you, that was quite awhile ago, and prices have definitely gone up, but having tapped into the mother lode at the time, I think I spent around $350 for the entire haul. Good luck.

great thread jason, thanks for posting. I don’t like the cheap look either but sometimes there are budget constraints and nice to have options. Though a slightly worn used option maybe better than a cheap repro. With ebay/etsy you run the risk of scratched and old stuff (pictures aren’t always accurate)… which can work depending on the rest of the hardware. It may be better to get a nice quality reproduction. England seems more advanced in terms of variety of nice repro hardware as well as cleaned up originals and those can be found on ebay.

here is the problem with today’s brass and this is where I sometimes get push back with customers: most brass today is “yellow brass”; it has less copper in it. much of the brass pre 1920 appears to have been “red” brass; it has more copper. so today we buy these yellow brass things and they look “bad” or “cheap”. they look “new”.

Btw, if anybody is looking for a budget option reproductions, I came across these which are half the price of the other repros:

The bright brass looks bad, but the oil rubbed bronze appears passable.

Thanks Steve. Sounds like a real labour of love.

I have ordered hinges from Charleston hardware. I think they spec the product and have it made someplace. it is all good product. very good product for price.

back to cobbling things together. very risky on ebay. you cannot find a full set of hinges without one being damaged. what I do is spend years cobbling this stuff together and make full sets out of broken sets. it takes years to find the matches though and I have been at it that long.
