Default Modern day plastic door lock problem.

Hi;

I have a "Coldseal" back door, Ya I Know.
After several years I have just got round to using the lock on it, that
basically no longer works.

It is the type that has four fingers and four pegs that go to really
lock the door to the frame, where one has to ram the door handle up to
engage them. It has the standard Euro lock to throw a long flat bolt
into the frame and lock the whole thing up.

I have taken all this apart and come to the conclusion there is a broke
spring (Only the one spring in there) that maintains pressure on one on
the plates that sits under the bolt.

Any one solve this problem?

I guess there may even be a seller of the whole replcement mechanism
some where as these seem to be standard (though stamped "Coldseal")
type fitments to modern doors.

Regards
Ian
