The Gold Aluminum Door Lock Set is a complete mortise unit finished in a deep antique gold that reads warmer and older than bright brass plating. If you have been looking for a gold door lock set that suits wooden doors and traditional Pakistani interiors without tipping into showroom shine, this is the tone to look at — the finish is muted, slightly bronzed, and forgiving of fingerprints. The set arrives complete with lock body, three-pin bolt, latch, striking plate and keys.
Key Features of the Gold Door Lock Set
- Deep antique gold finish with a bronzed undertone, not a bright polished brass plate
- Aluminium construction — lighter than zinc or brass, which reduces sag on hollow-core and MDF doors
- Long rectangular backplate with softly radiused corners and flush round fixing studs
- Straight lever with a full-length recessed channel that gives the grip a defined line
- Three-pin bolt plus latch for a firmer hold in the frame than a single-bolt unit
- Supplied with keys, striking plate, spindle and fitting screws

Where to Use
Wooden and Veneer Doors
Antique gold against a mid or dark wood grain is the single most reliable hardware pairing in Pakistani homes — the two warm tones reinforce each other instead of competing. On a pale door the same finish becomes a deliberate accent.
Drawing Rooms and Formal Spaces
Rooms that already carry gold in the light fittings, mirror frames, or curtain rods benefit from hardware in the same family. This finish is close enough to antique brass to sit beside those pieces without an obvious mismatch.
Lightweight and Hollow-Core Doors
Because the body is aluminium rather than solid brass, the assembly puts less continuous load on the door edge. On lighter internal doors that is a practical advantage, not just a weight saving.
Aluminium vs Brass — What You Are Choosing
Solid brass is heavier and carries a denser feel in the hand, and it costs correspondingly more. Aluminium gives you the same visual finish at a lower weight and a lower price, which makes it the sensible choice for interior doors where the lock is not defending a main entrance. If this is going on a main gate or front door, look at a heavier unit from our Main Gate Locks range instead.
Installation
The lock body seats in a mortise pocket cut into the door edge. If you are replacing an existing mortise lock, measure the backset and pocket depth of the old unit first. For a fresh installation, a carpenter should cut the pocket — this is not a job for a hand drill. Send us a photo of your door edge on WhatsApp and we will confirm fit before you order.
Before You Buy
- Confirm your door already has, or can take, a mortise pocket
- Check which side the door opens from before ordering
- Antique finishes vary slightly batch to batch, which is normal for the process and not a defect
- Compatibility should be confirmed against the existing installation before ordering
Care & Maintenance
Dust with a dry soft cloth only. Antique gold gets its depth from a darkened surface layer, so metal polish and abrasive cleaners will strip the aged tone back to raw brightness in patches. Keep polish away from it entirely.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this real gold or a plated finish?
It is an antique gold finish applied over aluminium, not solid gold or solid brass. That is what keeps the price at this level while giving you the warm tone.
Will aluminium hold up on a door used every day?
On interior doors, yes. Aluminium is strong for its weight and is widely used in door hardware. For a main entrance or gate that needs to resist forcing, a heavier zinc alloy or brass unit is the better call.
How does this differ from your antique brass locks?
Antique brass runs redder and warmer; this antique gold sits slightly cooler with a bronzed depth. Placed side by side the difference is clear, so pick based on the wood tone of your door.
Are the keys duplicable locally?
The set ships with its own keys. Standard key cutting shops can generally duplicate them, though we recommend keeping the originals as masters.
Do you offer bulk pricing for a full house or project?
Yes — message us on WhatsApp for trade and bulk pricing across door hardware.
