    VTnewguy, can you give any info on your door handles and latches? I've been looking for something similar with no luck, save for a Schlag product for $170.00; not only is the price a bit high for me but I really don't need a dead bolt. Thanks, Ted

    I dont have too many good interior pictures, however I have a 3x12 evaporator which is slight off center to the right with filtering and canning equipment on the left and a small sales counter in the front left. All my shelving is between the studs for product mainly in the front.

    We just found some simple hinges at home depot and the latch is a latch for a fence. Nothing fancy. One side has just the handle.

    Thanks VTnewguy! What keeps the thumb latch "arm" in place? I looked at a similar one where the arm/latch thing appeared to be held in place by nothing more than the grace of a loving God. Ted
