could be for the locking bar on a royal mail van, but would be on thr drivers side door

nos doors would be about £80.00 each

Hasp and paddlock guys used on engineers van, small windowed rear doors are not cheap Frank, I am guessing but £100 is not unreasonable especially as its from an enginers van

I would have guessed they are more expensive, but I've never tried to buy any.
I got a pair for my Marina suntor camper, and did a deal + collected as quick as possible as they are just so hard to find. The seller mentioned that he'd had a lot of frustrated potential purchasers on the phone - I told him that was why I'd been so darn quick about it. He'd found them when clearing a shed with a house clearance so it was his lucky day.

The surface rust and extra holes on these ones will detract from their value, but as you're not selling it's not a problem ;-)

was thinking more anout the other hole by the hanging side
todays eco climate i would say £80.00 is about right
