Door hinges \ lock for Trillium
A newbie to this site but a proud owner of a 1977 Trillium 4500. We want to change the outside door hinges and get a new door handle\lock. Can anyone offer any suggestions to help?
Thanks.
Michael D.

David..
Thanks for the info.. But if it's a L300 on a 1975 Trillium, will the same Trimark work as a replacement??

These are hand made. I'm pretty sure the aluminum cover plate could be made to any size at minimum added cost. I just won't be as plug and play as the standard one, some fitting will be required on your side.

Chris, I am sorry to say that there is no compatible replacement. Phillip is correct in that the procedure to install a Trimark latch in the hole of an L300 should be similar to the L400 procedure. Basically cover the larger hole with a plate that has a cut out for the new latch.
This company claims to have a replacement for an L300:

Maybe also look at these threads:

I hope that helps.

David.. Thanks for clearing this up for me.. While my forte is wood, I do have some experience shaping aluminum and will give it a try when needed ;-)
