Frizzz - I guess you have found the cheapest store. Is it a webshop or some local place in Italy?
Can you pls share the website?

I've followed the discussion with interest. I have exactly the same problem with the gas locker doors on my 2007 400. I wasn't clear from the correspondence though whether anyone has successfully fitted replacement lockers. The sizes of the non-Plastimo products seemed to be slightly different to that originally installed by Hanse. And I agree that it makes sense to replace with a better product if possible.

Can anyone confirm the satisfactory replacement? And if so the specific gas locker model (& supplier)?

Many thanks


Richard

Hi Richard,
 
I bought two new and replaced the old gas boxes.
Measurement is slightly different from the old but fits PERFECT. You can even use the old screws.
 
Good luck!

Hello Morgan

May I ask for your help again? I've tried to contact Nuovarade/Lalizas via the website and by phone without success.

Do you by any chance have a contact number (or even better) an email address that I could use?

Incidentally, can you explain what an "interrupted gasket" and a "whole gasket" is? I assume that I need the "interrupted" version.

Many thanks for all your assistance.

Richard

If you're looking for the same make of those hatches, you can find them @ marinemegastore.com 

Hope this helps

Hi Richard,
 
I guess you need the inerrupted gasket as it will allow the gas to pass through the gas box (in the bottom) and out in the free air if there will be a leak in the connections to the gas bottle.
 
Pls check with your marinestore - they would know.

Thanks for all the advice here. In the end I purchased 2 no Osculati lockers (http://www.osculati.com/fr/cat/Scheda.aspx?id=22517) from Marine Megastore in the UK. Including delivery charges they cost £169 in total.

They are much better constructed than the original Plastimo products and fit very well. They don't come with restraining straps for the bottles and I will probably re-use the old Plastimo ones.

If I could manage to do so I'd post photos. The lockers have been fitted so that the doors are hung on the aft edge, ie the doors open out over the transom. A little easier to use.

Best wishes

Richard
