It was suggested earlier in the thread, but the door is a “multipurpose Swiss army door”. It doubles up as a table, workbench...etc.

But does it have an attachment for taking stones out of horses' hooves??
Would an index plunger work, see they do all different type of designs
Don’t know if it possible to use in of these to drill a hole on the current pin so it can’t come undone
Just an idea

Could just fit a yale lock, and take the key out when you leave the vehicle

Thats what I want to avoid. I forgot the carabina which let it fly open, i want shut and forget.
I did find this by Masai, anyone used it? Any good?

- may be a bit annoying as it fits differently to the carrier I have so Ill have extra holes
Also found a potentially good latch that may work.

I bet that Masai jobbie is a horrid thing to live with long term, it'll rattle and shake like mad on rough lanes as it's not sprung loaded or positively latched.

Cant imagine its any worse than the current one. Gotta remember im quite separated from the rear end in the double cab.
What it looks like is a level that locks open or locks closed, no more annoying than an antiluce, pushing the tyre in to lock it and a carrabina!

80% of the time I take the spare off when doing any kind of offroading other than lanes.
