Hatch Adjuster

Wow Chris,

What a beautiful implementation of the humble hatch adjuster! It is interesting to see how people find always new solutions. My own hatch adjusters are a piece of string.

Hi Hans.I like the idea of the hatch being able to adjust as well as not slam onto its hinge,However i looked around at what was available and pricing and that is how these came about.They will also be able to lock the hatch from inside.I am also working on a Latch for the hatch so as to be able to allow quick access and be padlockable whilst remaining reasonably untoestubbable.Regards Chris

Thanks, Chris. This is really a good idea and I would be also interested to purchase some if that is possible. My main problem is the are the companionway hatched into the hulls. They are sliding into a garage and close over the washboard. I would like to lock them from the outside as well as from the inside. If I can afford it, I would also like 5 pairs of normal adjusters for the cabin top and deck salon front hatches, where I use not the string and spacer arrangement. best regards, Hans
