The metallic fittings in common use about a house or other building, such as hinges, bolts, locks. More rarely, by natural extension, larger fittings, but almost entirely in the interior, such as brass or cast-iron saddles for doors; but never including the fittings connected with the plumbing. (Sturgis, 1900)
