Hi, I am working on the bay compartments and would like to know the manufacturer of the pull-type latches. i have one missing the lock therefore the locking actuator is non-functional. Also need a couple of toggles.
Thanks,

Sorry, not a very good explanation. Yes, the metal latch on the outside of the bay door. The lock is missing on one door therefore I don't have the toggle on the back of the lock to connect to the actuator arm.
Also, the 12v lights in the bays, any recommendations on where to find a replacement would be appreciated. I have a couple where the switch has been broken off. They use miniature halogen bulbs and have a plastic grill over the lens.
It's a steep learning process on these coaches.
Thanks.

I have a variety of paddle latches in inventory with locks. If you could post a picture, I will look to see if there is a match. Or, perhaps I could fabricate the part you need.
Thank you Tom, I will look into the lights you suggested. Brighter would better than the original lights.
Gordon, I send a picture of latch and the lock as well as the toggle i need in a couple of days.
Thanks

Chris, I haven’t received a picture from you but I did take a picture of a couple of many different styles that are left over from production.
The lock sets may work but the operators of the back side may not match. Take a picture of one of the other doors with the operator of the back side and I might be able to fab one for you. These locks will have a different key than yours.
Many have removable operators. They are either firmly fixed or attached with a machine screw.

Chris, either one of the locks would work however, one with a machine screw to hold the actuator since one would have to be duplicated. I believe there are some locks in my stash with machine screws and I could make the operator if you would like. Email me.
