You will see the key can only be put in from one side.. the other flat side of the iron lock only has the circular hole for the long end of the key to fit through and a small openwork area below which has only been worn away i would say from the use of the key.Looking at the side where the key fits in you can see at both sides ..the bolt moves freely when the key is turned ..when in the open position you can see the back end of the bolt slide across .The lock is 33cm long x 12cm wide x 4.5cm deep.. the very front is 6cm wide where the bolt comes out of. the Bolt is 5cm x 2.5cm .The short shaped guide that allows the key to fit in snug sticks out 3cm.. this is interestingly made with a BUTTERFLY like back plate attached to the main lock housing.The KEY ... this is HUGE also as you can imagine from the size of the lock ..its 24.5cm long... and the Bow is 5.5cm x 3.5cm ..the Lock part is quite intricate and has 3 grooves on the bottom , a key hole shape in the centre and notches at the ends. its 4cm x 4cm x 13mm wide.     The lock weighs..... nearly 4 kilograms on its own .. the KEY weighs...266 grams ..... so the shipping reflects the weight issue...    If a scale is shown it is in CENTIMETRES ... 2.5cm = 1 inchPlease just click on a picture of the item and a new window opens up where the photographs are all enlarged ..scroll through each one to make sure you have seen the beauty of the item. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Click here  GEORGIAN HOUSE COLLECTABLESto see my EBAY SHOP items which are BUY IT NOW or Best Offers..these items dont show up on normal Ebay searches.  <<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>> For my full Terms & Conditions please  View My About Me page   Please note the items I sell are antique or vintage and as such have been around for many years, they will show signs of use and whilst I will describe condition to the best of my ability, everyone has a different idea of condition.  Please study my photo's  and ask any questions before bidding.Payment by PAYPAL ~ DIRECT BANK TRANSFER or STERLING CHEQUE only Please ASK questions before bidding  I SELL   WIDE                      diggerlee Store Place a Bid!
