ABOUT SUFFOLK THUMB LATCHES

The first iron works in America was established in Saugus Massachusetts in 1646. Blacksmiths brought to the New World their time–tested styles and applied them to door hardware. The thumb latch was the solution of choice. The thumb latch consists of five parts: the handle, thumb piece, latch bar, guard and striker (or keeper).

Great to visit in person again and spend some... time touring around inside. So much to see in plenty of nooks and crannies. Lots to get inspired by. Treasures everywhere. Went home with some red well weathered barn board. Excited to turn them into some rustic cottage picture frames! Pleasure speaking with the staff there as well. A fantastic visit. Certain to see you again. Thanksread more

I recently got an old house in Montreal.I was... as careful as I could during the move, but accidents happen: I broke the spindle of one of the doorknobs.Was that a bad sign?Christine, from Legacy Vintage, showed me it was not.Desperately browsing the internet for the old trinket, I found many people trying to sell me hardware that "would/should/could work" or "worth a try."Christine promptly answered my request by giving me the certainty of the exact item I wanted.Of course, I was already at ease with my finding, but I was secretly lamenting to pay shipping fees that would surpass the spindle's price.Then, here's where Christine won me over: she asked me if I knew a particular antique store in my city that could offer the same article. So, she followed with its name and address.I was head over heels! How uncommon is it to find an unselfish, kind, and proactive merchant willing to put the customers' interests above his/her profits?Indeed, yesterday, after a 20-minute drive, I got my old spindle for a bargain.Thanks to Christine, my little old house is wholesome again, and so is my belief in kindness!read more

I purchased a vintage screen door from Legacy... Vintage Building Materials via their online website and I could not be any happier. Legacy Vintage has a great selection of quality, vintage materials at a great price. The vintage door I purchased is more beautiful and better quality than any reproduction I had looked at elsewhere. The service provided by Legacy Vintage also sets them apart. I needed to have my order shipped to the US in March (2020) and there was a lot of uncertainty at that time. The staff at Legacy Vintage took great care and kept me informed every step of the way and my door arrived safely. I was also able to find out some information about where the piece came from and its age. I now have a unique piece on my porch that gets lots of compliments. I highly recommend Legacy Vintage.read more

This is a pretty unique gem that I don't think... enough people know about. Everytime we go to visit we discover something we missed last time, and we've been bringing all our friends and family. If you are into vintage stuff, fixing up an old house or looking to add something old to your new digs this is the place. From old doors, old lights, old tubs and the hardest to find piece, I'd highly suggest checking them out. And don't let the word Old scare you away, everything in there will last another century.. at least.read more

One of the few places around where you can get... authentic vintage architectural items. They have loads of things like doors and windows and also harder to find items including locks handles lamps etc. Also items needed for bathrooms kitchens too. They are not cheap however, so don't expect bargain basement prices. But if you need specific items give them a try. The site is almost like a museum so worth a visit just to see what they have!read more
