Just the ticket thanks SCI've looked into this myself and I'm not sure that you can purchase just the latches. I know you can get new doors, but the latches appears to be fixed with permanent fixings (some kind of rivet I believe).

Got a replacement on order Middy thanks to SCThere are some products out there, that you can cut off the front bit of the box etc, and install a replacement cover & frame. Been meaning to do it myself, as my electric box has few holes in the door, done by a slamming side gate. Happened circa 1993, it's on my pending list
