Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!
one of the first places i looked (you see, i'm addicted to lee valley), but didn't find any locksets....did i miss 'em?
thought they were there...
how about a storm door lockset???

More info would be helpful, such as:
Are they wood, steel, aluminum?
How thick are they?
Is cost an issue?
Is high security an issue?
i was thinking "antique...ish", security not an issue, brushed nickel or something, door is 1.25" thick
cost always an issue, but want something heavy and solid, i'll pay for quality.thanks for the help

I bought some stuff from House of Antique Hardware a year ago. It took a long time to arrive, but it was good quality and a fair price.

You might try http://www.deltana.net or http://www.iveshardware.com"Kinky for Gov. of Texas"
I've had good experience ordering some french door hardware (omnia) from knobsandthings.com
Do a little "google-ing" - you get lots of hits...
yeah, that's the problem, not finding sources, but finding "good" sources.....seems better to get a recommendation than to hope the internet picture is goodknow what i mean?thanks
