Our lever on rose furniture have concealed roses, this means that the screws and fixing holes are hidden by a cover. For doors that you have no wish to lock, they are generally fitted with a simple tubular latch. For doors that you do wish to lock, it will be necessary to purchase an escutcheon (key hole cover) together with a sash lock.
