peer agreement (net): +1safety escutcheon Explanation: On "old" doors with keyholes, the escutcheon is the largely decorative piece of metal around the hole serving multiple purposes: - decoration - protection of the wood, so it doesn't get worn by multiple key entry, - guide for aligning the key straight -reflective material making it easier to find the lock in dim light. In your case, it will be a rounded / cupped / dished piece of metal around the protruding lock cylinder so that attempts to whack the cylinder with a hammer will be largely defeated, the escutcheon diverting the blow. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2008-01-19 16:09:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Fitted from 1966 with the door safety escutcheon boss also fitted.This boss is available as 24A1834 and gasket 24A1835 ... www.minispares.com/Product.aspx?pid=42145 exterior safety escutcheon. -interior safety escutcheon. -screws. •. cable: EL648 – 8853, EL650 – 8855. •. loose magnetic contact: 8951/8952 ... www.vingcardmarine.com/binary?id 50 Ø x H mm safety escutcheon. for profile cylinder, 50 Ø x 2 mm .... with safety escutcheon and bush at the. top for handle.
