Established in 1862 and operational until 1950, Reading Hardware Company, located in Reading, Pennsylvania, began as a hardware manufacturer founded by Ferdinand Guth and George S. Kress. Its initial offerings included builders’ hardware, locks, hinges, and diverse metal products, earning recognition for quality and innovation in residential, commercial, and industrial applications.

This set features a German Renaissance style four-fold door knob and a matching back plate, both made by Reading and included in their 1905 catalog. These pieces are part of the H-42500 Mantua group and reflect the design aesthetics of that era. It’s a unique and historically inspired choice for adding character and style to your doors.
