Has anyone managed to source a replacement hinge like this?

Pic of the complete door will help as it might identify the manufacturer. A lot are made by Hartal. A few on eBay. Also search dometic caravan door hinge.

Thanks for that!

I looked at the OLeary one but the measurements are wrong by 10mm - although it does depend on what they are measuring…..

I might drop Billsunhinged an email

I might get son, Adam, to swap out the bottom with the middle one so I can still go away on Friday

Thank you all for your help!

I have emailed Billsunhinged ( love that name ) and will await his reply.

O’Leary’s seem to have second-hand ones in stock @ £29.99 plus £9.99 postage. Hmmmm…

If that's your only option - price really isn't a concern

I am thinking that a new one from him is better value than a second-hand one that might already be fragile along that bend.

I fitted a new hinge from Billsunhinged a few months ago on my sisters Eldis.
Very quick delivery and easy job.

Ordered from Billsunhinged on Tuesday evening and it arrived this morning - which was a surprise as it was sent via Royal Mail (who put it through the letterbox despite it supposed to be signed for)

Just got to get my son to shoe-horn the fitting into his very busy schedule

Pleased it's all sorted. Just tell your son if he can't fit you in I'll bring my van up and he can work on that
