Series 2 2a & 3 Galvanised Rear Door Plain Glazed (Aluminium Skin) (S) 1958-1985
Most accurately made Series rear
door available on the market.
This door has been made by us to be as close to the original fitted doors as
possible.
We
know owners of Series 2 & 3 models want accurate replacement parts that
look “Right” and for the last 30 years they have had to put up with cheap rear
doors that fit but don’t look anything like the original parts. What makes
these the best available?
Curved handle
box
2 Hinge mount
Accurate box
section under handle box
Dovetail for
brass latch mount under handle
Correct check
strap slider
Correct sized
upper curved pressings
Brace point below LH window area
The
door frame where the handle bolts to is also flush to the flange on the outer
skin recess. On every other Series door available, when you look through the
handle recess there is a drop of about 2cm. This means water, mud and leaves
get stuck there and then rust the door away. We have made our flush as original.
Of course
coming from us, the frame is hot dipped galvanised and is fitted with an aluminium
skin for originality. The skin is bonded to the frame which helps stop the skin
and the frame rubbing each other and also helps stops rattling when you shut
the door so give a much more premium feel than others.
Our
door is the only Series door to have a proper 2 hinge mount. Others have the
middle hinge holes in the frame but not drilled through the skin. Ours are the
proper 2 hinge type, again keeping as close to original as possible.
Being
galvanised these will last a very long time indeed and won’t start to rust out
within just a few months like standard painted ones do.
The
frame is bare galvanised finish and the skin is bare aluminium.
To
prepare for paint, wash over the frame with T-Wash/Mordant solution. This
etches the zinc black. Then go over the whole door, frame and skin with an etch
primer. Then follow on by a high build primer. Finish off with your colour
coats
This
is made in England by us and we believe this to be the best Series door on the
market and the most accurate made part available.
