Thank you all,sirs, for your kind replies. The main things I shall eventually require are the sort of door handles that are vertical and pivot at the base. They are for a pair of sliding doors. Really, they are just like all the handles on our interior doors. It'd be a simple thing to turn the operating lever from horizontal to vertical. Also easy enough to simply make them from bits of brass wire, but the sheer quality of the cast brass ones beggars belief......if I can find them again. Cheers. BY.
