If anyone is missing their external chrome door handles altogether (like I was when I bought my Portafold) I do have a company that produces the original specification handles brand new. They come complete with 2 keys per handle and they are able to supply them with matching locks. I now have 4 keys that fit both top and bottom locks. One each for me and the Mrs and two spare.

When I got my Portafold - the previous owner had managed to misplace the keys - fortunately while it was unlocked !
I managed to get good reproductions from Paul Beck Vintage Supplies - they look FAB and he has a good selection if you want something a little different - though some might say a little pricey...

Just been to the locksmith with my key number as found on the shaft. yep got a new key, now found out the darned thing only turns halfway and not the fault of the key, £5 wasted. Last year i bought one brand new original handle with two keys from a vintage car gathering for £7.50.... I'll be back there again. Ooh the problems with having three portafolds. There is a message here...

Ok, don't call me a Portafold anorak but I've got the full info on the external handles. The correct style handles are still being made by a company called Weston Body Hardware (http://www.wbh.co.uk), part no.B18-1/12950, and you can buy them direct from WBH or from their retailers. Don't be fooled by similar looking handles that don't have the 45mm hole spacing.

Ok, don't call me a Portafold anorak

If Portafolds had rivets, I'd call you a rivet counter

Oh yes Wilko(number 15) has arrived Mr Admin...............

Be careful Ken or I might sell that sparkling new van badge to Mr Braddon...

Anyway, you should have the title of van anorak.
