A mortise lock is one where the lock body is inside the door. The most common brands of storm door hardware are Pado, Papaiz, Emco, Emtek and Wright Hardware Many steel security doors and aluminum storm doors used mortise hardware. The old style polished brass mortise Hardware tarnished, corroded and discolored. The newer security storm doors hardware that has the ?PVD? No Tarnish, No Corrode, No Discolor finish was not designed the same as the older storm door hardware. Mortise locks are the most intimidating of the storm door hardware to change because they are not an exact match. However, most of the time it only requires drilling a couple of new holes.
