Can you not replace the whole mechanism?

It isn't the mechanism that is broken, it is the plastic moulding on the
inside of the locker door.

I could, perhaps, order a new one from Hymer in Germany (likewise with the
mechanism) but that would just (at considerable expense) reinstate a
design which, on a brand new caravan, has already failed.


If it is brand new why are you expecting to pay for it?
Can you not get the supplier/manufacturer to repair it as it has proved
unsatisfactory.


I need a temporary fix anyway whatever the final solution.

Is there room around the locker just to keep it closed with a suitable
length ratchet strap for the time being.
