Bought these patio doors from Wickes about 5 years ago.
Wickes tell me the supplier has gone out of business, so no replacement
handles are available.

Any ideas anyone?

If you can't get a new one, you could probably repair it
with GRP on the inside. You'd have to get it off, though.
Is it rivetted or screwed?

Take it off, it looks as if it's held on by posidrive screws and attempt to
find any manufacturer's information on concealed surfaces and then try and
contact the original manufacturers of the handle.

If no joy with that approach then hawk the handle around your local double
glazing suppliers, one of them may be able to tell you the manufacturer of
the handle, or who used to/ still does supply them.
