chrome flush bolts

[erik]

hi
can anyone recommend a supplier of decent quality chrome flush bolts please. they need to be approx 100mm long and 10 - 12 mm wide, to be let into the edge of a rebated flush door. just returned the 4 that i ordered from screwfix as the quality of the casting was pants.
regards
erik

Be careful to check pricing with Ironmongery Direct - quite a lot of their products are Hafele products at higher prices than other Hafele retail resellers (like BK).

ID don't do them thinner than 16mm anyway

cheers for the heads up. they're not my usual supplier, but they were the only ones i could find find with the french window bolts.

they wern't cheap, but not crazy money for solid brass bolts.

if anyone knows another supplier i'd be interested, cos they are nice and i'd use them again.

It's the same as a Carlisle Brass product - but it seems that Aglio is another distributor's brand so at a guess it's probably a bit generic made-in-China.

Here's a hit with a cheaper price and note it is VAT inclusive unlike ID (never used these people so not a recommendation):

ID are a sound company(quick reliable etc) but never knowingly oversold IME. Edit: actually that's a bit unfair, but they are rarely the cheapest.
