Aftermarket Door Handles

[truflite]

Recently, I was approached by an RV-10 builder about making aluminum inside door handles for an RV-10. Van's provides a handle made from square tubing that is functional, but not aesthetic. I would like to try making a set of handles and market them. I need to see, first hand, a set of handles. Is there anyone out there that would be interested in these handles? Here is my proposal. I need the factory handles to design my handles, including the locking mechanism. The first to send me there handles will get their new ones free. Any takers?

I think a mob called Hendricks Manufacturing make some already..........

You may find its easier not to reinvent the wheel.

I am sure Google will find them for you.

Door Handle

I checked them out. They do make a nice handle, but it is not RV-10 specific. I plan to use the existing mechanics including the push buttton lock and manufacture a new handle. What I envision, is to have the owner send me his or her handles and locks and modify them to add the new handle. I am looking at a lot lower price as well.
