The rectangular metal housing for round interior door knobs...?

Not the backing plates you get with some - the are more substantial and probably Victorian in style. Can't for the life of me work out what they are called and I need some!

Are you talking about "rimlocks"?

Edit, honestly it's safe to google but here, have a safe link!

Honestly, it's not some bizarre sexual practice that'll make your wife leave you when she sees it in the internet history!
