Saw these funky things of a Concorde Credo Emotion today and as I need a door holding open catch thingy for my Tribute I thought they're just the very thing!
The catch is held flat back against its mounting surface by a spring, the whole thing looks quite robust. The catch slots into the "T" in the base plate, there's a spring latch to release it - neat bit of engineering.
The questions are:
1. Who makes them?
2. Where can I get them from?
3. Can they be mounted on a GRP body like the Tribute T-620?
4. Do the catches come in various lengths to suit your needs?
Thanks for the link, they do look a bit flimsier than the ones I saw, I'd have to do a physical comparison - this is the problem with being an engineer of course.
We put a simple caravan door one on ours m/h door, very cheap and works well.
Most importantlky it locks firmly in place.
We had those on our previous MH's, the wind would take them whereas this design would hold - the only misgiving I have is whether the GRP structure can take it.
The lock we have is a fixed one and does not give even under the strongest wind unless you release a secure switch. Will post a picture tomorrow if it would help?
Very cheap and safe.
Just found out it called a lever lock.
