Thumb-turn Latches


If you'd found one of these in a bag and the other laying on the floor 30 feet away (and two years ago) in your basement, would you have known that they belong together?

Me either.

I'm glad that two years ago I saved the the two thumb-turns. I'd always wondered what they were for.

I'd found the cover plate in a bag with a bunch of random stuff earlier in the week.

Fortunately there was a door that still had the cover plate, but it was missing its thumb-turn.

I have no idea how I remembered that I had these thumb-turns with 1/4-inch square spindles. It was just one of those "I wonder if that thing in the basement will fit this" moments...
