Thumbs up Help me find a door bolt, please!
OK, so I need a new door bolt, it's for the bog door so I'm not fussed from a security point of view as such. It needs to be three inches long, necked and most importantly, black.

I have this

Must be black, must be necked, three inches long... surprise me cos I'm fecked if I can find one!

Eh, eh, things are looking up for you in the dating stakes

Zoe has them on the coffee table and is getting quite excited by it all.

Swiss, has to be Vimto! Water damage, sticky and bonus coloured stain!

2000 sport, close but no cigar!

This is the nearest I've found (I am planning a B&Q trip though)



I don't think I can get away with that, the hinges are smooth and I have a nice Suffolk latch...
