wavylittleboat Posted May 29, 2018 Posted May 29, 2018 Can anyone advise me where to get new door handles for the outside door of my Hampton Safari please. Plate size 7" length X 1" width Quote
JawsOrca Posted May 29, 2018 Posted May 29, 2018 Have you got a picture? I know a few suppliers which you never know may have something... Quote
wavylittleboat Posted May 29, 2018 Author Posted May 29, 2018 We are currently at home sorting out a few things then going back to the boat in a couple of days. I'll take a couple of pictures and post them on here, see if anything looks familiar because we really are having trouble with this?thanks Quote
JennyMorgan Posted May 29, 2018 Posted May 29, 2018 The originals probably came from Coopers of Gt Yarmouth, I believe that they are still in business. 1 Quote
Ray Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 They also now have an online store, Coopers Direct - http://www.coopersdirect.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=featured&Itemid=101 I'd be interested to know if you find a good replacement, it's on the "to do" list for my Safari as well. Quote
dnks34 Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 These could also be worth a look but at marine prices will be more expensive!! https://www.asap-supplies.com/ http://www.sea-screw.co.uk/ Quote
wavylittleboat Posted June 3, 2018 Author Posted June 3, 2018 Hi everyone, well, we have had a look around and still not found the right thing but I can at last post a picture. So here is the elusive little bxxxxr 1 Quote
Ray Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 Well it's completely different to my Safari outside doors, sorry that doesn't help, unless it indicates that it may not be original (or mine isn't!) Quote
ZimbiIV Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 That looks like an old double glazed door opener. You could also try Norwich camping at Blofield paul Quote
FairTmiddlin Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 These seem to have loads of differing handles including these https://www.handlesandhinges.co.uk/era-vectis-centres-pz-95mm-screw-centres-122mm-backplate-221mm-x-32mm-3230w/ Quote
annv Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 Hi They look like ordinary household door handles any ironmongery shop or locksmith, or window double glazing firm, Amber in Norwich up near airport in this area. John Quote
SPEEDTRIPLE Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 Hi Wavy, You don`t say why you need replacements, do you just want a direct replacement, or is there a mechanical problem with them. If you wish to keep them, and there IS a problem, why not remove them and the locking mech, and take it to a locksmith, they may be able to repair the original, or at least match it up, with sometning else and keep your original handles. Years ago, on my Daytona 955i, i snapped the only ignition key in the fuel tank locking cap. I was getting rediculous quotes in the high hundreds for new lock sets and keys. That was until a works colleague suggested i take the ignition lock down to a local locksmith, where they will dismantle the lock, and make a key fit, then reassemble the lock, and cut another key on their machine. Result, a £25.00 bill, plus two new ignition lock security bolts. With this in mind, i would be very surprised if a local locksmith could`nt do a similar service for your boats locks?. 1 Quote
