Not sure if this is considered a woodworking problem but here goes. We installed French Doors in our livingroom. The stiles are only 3 and one half inches in width. As a result we cannot find hardware that will fit the doors without the back plate of the doorhandle protuding slightly past the wood stile and covering the glass by about 1/4 of an inch. A 2 and 3/8 inch backset is too long. Hope this makes some sense. My wife prefers a brass handle type as opposed to a door knob. Can someone suggest a dealer or website where we could find some specialized hardware to accommodate our problem? We live in the eastern part of Canada but close to the U.S. Thank you.
