Is there any drawings or books that contain material  on what types and styles of hinges and latches were used on English ships of these periods? Please let me know if there is any information on these items.

 

Thanks

There is little available on this subject, but it is more than likely that hardware would be similar to that seen on buildings of the period, of which some survive.
