Locking toggle fasteners - where to buy?
I'm after some (only two, or maybe four) locking toggle fasteners.
These are the sort of thing you might see on one of those aluminium photographic equipment cases or similar. Security isn't a big issue so the lock can be very simple, it's more a matter of ensuring that the latch doesn't come open accidentally. I want something that is weatherproof as well so it needs to be made of stainless steel or anodised aluminium or similar. Can anyone suggest a supplier? I've tried Screwfix, Isaac Loard and a couple of other well known ones with no luck. -- Chris Green |

The sort I'm after is what they call an ENCLOSED TOGGLE LATCH, they only have one like that but it's still the best I've found so far. -- Chris Green |
