Wanted - Swing bolt window catches please

[lucy1958]

Hi all
Wondering if any one could help me out with some swing bolt window catches for my 1958 caravan.
If you had some I need at least 4 please.

Any help or advise as to how I could catch up with some would be a great help.

Hi Lucy1958,

Glad you got an answer on the swingbolts. There's always someone on the forum who knows the answer to our questions, eh?

The reason why you couldn't post photos is explained here. You need to post the photos from Photobucket or whatever online photo website you are using for your avatar.

So if any one has or know where I can get some hinges like this I would like to hear from you please? 

Thanks and regards from Rob

Rob, if you want slot head screws to go with your hinges, you have to search for 'countersunk raised head slotted screws'. Probably No.6 No.4 gauge x 3/8" would do (that's what is in my van). The screws you get with the Bunnings hinges will be philips head screws.

cheers,
Al.

Hi Rob, I have a supply of New Old Stock of those hinges, I have sent you a PM.

Cheers,Kris.

Can these people help?... www.whiteheather.co.nz/rv-parts-accessories/vents-windows-doors/vents-windows-doors.php?cat=Vents/Windows/Doors
These could be a cheaper option but there doesn't appear to be any latch bracket included... www.ebay.com.au/itm/ANTI-RATTLE-WINDOW-FASTENERS-CARAVAN-MOTORHOME-X-2-/320877379859?pt=UK_Campervan_Caravan_Accessories&hash=item4ab5c84113#ht_282wt_1001
