Replacing skylight handles, pins reusable?

[LeccyLee]

Anyone replaced their heki rooflight handles? About to have a go this afternoon (as tied shut currently!), and worried only one set of pins in new kit? Surely need a set of pins for the handle, and another set for the struts? Sure the old ones can’t be raised can they?

I reused the pins a couple of years back when I replaced my struts.

No issue's, and still going strong now.

I also removed the whole skylight at the same time to clean everything and wanted to replace the main hinge pins but couldn't find replacements

Ah ok, I assumed the little caps that grip the pins wouldn’t work Again after being taken off?

I did the same to give a thorough clean to our heiki roof lights. Could not find replacement hinge pins online. Does anyone know where to get them?
