{"product_id":"lockwood-velocity-saltbush-lever-34","title":"Lockwood Velocity Saltbush Lever (34)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eLockwood Velocity Saltbush (34)\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most traditionally-rooted lever in the Velocity range — a robust, well-proportioned design that draws on classic Australian lever handle conventions while still sitting comfortably within the clean, contemporary Velocity family. Named after the hardy native saltbush plant — a symbol of resilience and adaptability across Australian landscapes — the Saltbush lever is built to the same uncompromising standard as everything Lockwood makes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned in Australia and backed by Lockwood's 25-year mechanical warranty, the Saltbush arrives pre-assembled on the 63mm round rose with the Velocity Series' signature concealed-fixing, twist-and-tighten installation system. It suits the widest range of architectural styles of any lever in the Velocity range — a true all-rounder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLever profile — Saltbush 34\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Saltbush has a longer, more sweeping body than the L-series levers — a lever with genuine presence on the door face. Its form is more traditional in character than the geometric Element or the dramatic Spire, making it the natural choice for homes that want Lockwood quality with a slightly more classic feel. It's the lever that bridges the gap between period sensibility and contemporary finish — particularly effective in transitional homes, renovations of older properties, and coastal or rural settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRose diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e63mm × 12.5mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLever length\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLever projection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e64mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRose hole compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50mm or 54mm diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoor thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e32mm and 45mm hinged doors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid zinc die-cast\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25-year mechanical warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDesigned in Australia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart numbers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVEL1\/34 (Passage) · VEL2\/34 (Privacy) · VEL3\/34 (Dummy)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAvailable finishes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSatin Chrome (SC)\u003c\/strong\u003e — warm brushed silver, fingerprint-resistant, the most versatile finish for transitional and coastal homes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChrome Plate (CP)\u003c\/strong\u003e — high-gloss polished chrome; pairs particularly well with the Saltbush's more traditional profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSatin Pearl (SP)\u003c\/strong\u003e — flat Satin finish; not a brushed finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAvailable functions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePassage set\u003c\/strong\u003e — for connecting doors, hallways and living areas with no locking requirement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrivacy set\u003c\/strong\u003e — push-button snib for bathrooms, ensuites and toilets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDummy half set\u003c\/strong\u003e — non-operational lever for wardrobes, cupboards and linen presses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat homes suit the Saltbush?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Saltbush's traditional character makes it the first choice for homeowners renovating period properties who want a modern, warranted product that doesn't look out of place in older interiors. It's equally at home in Federation, Californian Bungalow and post-war homes undergoing renovation — where a fully traditional lever like Tradco would be appropriate but the budget or timeline calls for a faster, more accessible product. In Chrome Plate it reads as genuinely classic; in Satin Chrome it bridges traditional and contemporary; in Matt Black it has an unexpected contemporary edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAustralian design story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the Hakea, the Saltbush takes its name from a distinctly Australian plant — the saltbush, which grows across arid and semi-arid Australia and is one of the most resilient plants on the continent. The naming reflects Lockwood's commitment to designing products that are specifically Australian in identity and intent — not adapted from overseas ranges but conceived from the ground up for the Australian market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhole-of-home compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Saltbush 34 lever is available on Lockwood Nexion Classic and Nexion Vision entrance locksets, enabling a consistent hardware specification from the front door entrance set through every internal door.

The concealed twist-and-tighten fixing mechanism leaves no visible screws on the finished door face. The rose fits 50mm and 54mm bore holes, covering both new and retrofit door preparations. Professional installation through Lockmart's qualified locksmiths is available across the Mornington Peninsula, Frankston, Braeside and surrounding areas.

If you're renovating an older home and want a Lockwood lever that doesn't feel jarringly modern, the Saltbush is the one to choose.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is it called Saltbush?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eLockwood named the Velocity levers after distinctly Australian references. The saltbush is one of Australia's most resilient native plants, growing across inland and coastal regions. The name reflects the Velocity Series' identity as a range designed specifically for Australia — and the Saltbush lever's reputation for durability suits the namesake well.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Saltbush suit Federation or period homes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eIt's the most period-compatible lever in the Velocity range, though it won't replicate the ornate profiles of traditional heritage hardware like Tradco's cast-brass levers. If you're renovating a period home and want authentic restoration hardware, Tradco is the first choice. If you want a modern, warranted product with a more traditional silhouette for a period home, the Saltbush in Chrome Plate is a practical and attractive option.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Saltbush available in Matt Black?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eYes.

The Hakea has the larger projection at 70mm versus the Saltbush's 64mm, and the two profiles are shaped differently — the Hakea is slightly more barrel-like, while the Saltbush has a longer, more traditional sweep. The choice between them is purely aesthetic.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat warranty applies to the Saltbush?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eThe full Lockwood 25-year mechanical warranty applies — covering the lever action, latch mechanism and rose assembly against manufacturing defects.
