Hi. Does anyone know if the button catch fitted to one of the glass doors in the cabinet above the shower room sink is available anywhere?. We just have a plastic insert in the door with a hole in it, into which I presume should be some sort of spring and button, which stops the doors from sliding open when travelling. I currently use a matchstick in the hole but this is not ideal! Hope someone can help.

Hi there,

I was losing the will to live searching for it but I found out that it's probably a Cleo Bathroom Cabinet and ....

Hope this helps. allthumbz

Many thanks for that. I have emailed them. It might come down to a blob of blue tack between the doors :)

Hi there,

Surely 'botch jobs" are what make all of our AutoSleepers personal to us .... up! up!

.... but please post a photograph when you decide how you are going to do it. allthumbz allthumbz

I hate being defeated so I had another trawl through Google today and "mirror pop up button" delivered this ....

Yes, it's a dangerous game sometimes, searching the internet for something innocuous - you never know what will pop up!!  censored!
May use white tack - will blend in better.........................

I bought two push button knobs from AS last year, didn`t fit them until last week, only bought as two of mine were scratches and a couple of chips in the rim part. hardest part was getting the old ring out of the door / Luton locker door. took the Luton door off in the end, easier that way. mine are the brass ones, would you get away with one in your cabinet?. I think mine were half the price of the above.

Hi. Thanks for all the suggestions. I am not sure if those would be suitable for the glass sliding doors however. I did buy some replacement push buttons like you mention from here [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
I have an idea which may or may not work so will report back once tested...............................

Job sorted. Two small self adhesive magnetic strips fixed where the doors overlap means that when the doors are closed the magnets hold them in position. The strip stuck on the front of the door at the back can only be seen when that door is fully over to the right, otherwise they are hidden. Passed MOT with only a couple of small welding jobs and a new horn so all is well in the
