Door latch for 272 head.
 
Any ideas on door latches? The only markings I've found is menveo
eskilstuna and it seems to be a 1 1/2" hole rather then the 2" door slams on West Marine.

Thanks
Brian

In case anyone ends up needing one. The Southco part #MP-02-103-555 (Black on black) and it can be ordered directly from Southco at 1800-692-3050 for around $11.

They have other colors (See http://www.southco.com/product/class.aspx?cid=7472 for information). They key is to make sure you order a type 2 which will start with "MP-02".

Well I'll be, I started there and must have read right past it :( On the bright side I know it's right :)

It may be worth adding the phone number since the links to all their distributors got me no where fast. The number is for Southco's marine department and they were great! I sense they don't sell retail, but when I explained I was having problem finding a supplier it was a non issue and the price was half of retail.

Chris or Ryan will probably update the parts thread upon reading this thread.

We are always appreciative of members willing to contribute useful information. Be sure to keep it up!

Looks like WetWilly beat me to it! He added it for us!

Thanks for your research into this Brian, I'm sure it will come in very handy for those who might have trouble with their latches!! :wink_thumbup:

Sorry guys, but it appears I'm having one heck of an unusual problem with some of my posts not showing up.

I posted a reply to brian right after his second post, thanking him for locating the source as Southco is the same company that makes many of our locking storage compartment latches (found them while looking through their catalog).

I said I was going to add this information to our parts list but my post never made it! Glad to see the update to the Parts List worked!

So in the Parts List are links for Brian's round and my rectangular latches by Southco.

Brian, is this the contact number you called (610) 459 - 4000? If not, please forward me the phone number and I will add it to the listing.

Thanks,
WetWilly
