I have a question concerning how everyone treats key holes and escutcheon plates.
Do you carve out the keyhole to match the profile of the escutcheon plate hole? I've only fit a couple of locks and I think they look better with a hole matching the profile of the plate. But in the one I'm currently fitting the hole in the escutcheon plate seems pretty large. Does anyone know what makers did in period pieces?
