The From The Anvil 1/2" Rebate Kit is an essential hardware solution for homeowners and professional joiners installing tubular mortice latches on rebated doors, where two doors overlap at the closing edge. This kit allows the latch to sit flush within the door edge, ensuring smooth operation and a professional aesthetic, though it is specifically engineered for doors between 40mm and 50mm in thickness.

Close your doors and try to pass a piece of paper through the center gap. If the paper cannot pass through, your doors are rebated.
No, the rebate kit is designed as an accessory to adapt an existing or separately purchased tubular mortice latch for rebated doors.
This kit is specifically designed for doors between 40mm and 50mm thick. Using it on thinner doors may compromise the structural integrity of the door edge.
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth periodically. Avoid chemical cleaners or abrasive pads.
You will need a drill, a set of wood chisels for the mortising process, a screwdriver, and a measuring tape.
Check that the rebate kit is sitting flush with the door edge; if it sits too deep or protrudes, adjust the mortise depth.
Ensure the latch tongue is correctly aligned with the striker plate and the rebate kit is not causing the latch to bind.
Installation involves mortising the edge of the rebated door to accept the kit block, ensuring it aligns perfectly with the strike plate on the opposing door. Always use a sharp chisel for clean wood removal to ensure a tight fit. The kit is compatible with most standard tubular mortice latches. For care and maintenance, clean the bronze finish periodically with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or acidic polishes, as these may damage the specialized bronze coating over time.
