Re: [VACList] 70s door latch



Lefty,

When I responded to your original message the L100 was the only one that came 
to mind as an inexpensive replacement. Although the L400 is a possibility, as 
it's shape is very similar. However, having just done a search for another 
customer I found that the L 400 is out of production and available resources 
are going away. I finally found some in the warehouses of a distributor called 
Coast RV. They will not sell direct retail so you will have to contact an RV 
store that does business with them. I for one would be very interested to see 
what an L 400 installation would look like. The lockset looks very much like 
the "refrigerator door handle" style of the early 60's except those were vertical 
mounted while the L400 is horizontal mounted.
The L100 or L200 locksets are still readily available through most RV parts 
resources.
