Need parts or new replacement for Arcadia old-style handleset

by Len
(palo alto, ca, USA)

We have an Eicher home with original Arcadia sliding door handles and locks. I understand parts for these handles or locks are no longer available. Can anyone recommend a new alternative replacement part or parts for the handle, including interior and exterior handles, lever for keyway and mortise style lock? Attached is a photo of one door handle and lock. What seems to break inside the lock is the spring. Also one of them is missing the exterior door handle.

starstarstarstarstar 		Rebuildable lock mechanism
by: Dan Leitner

Having run into non-functional locks on our Arcadia sliders, we set out to rebuild them and can now offer parts and rebuilds for others for various doors.

These cog lock mechanisms are no longer available anywhere where can find, and the springs in them have long failed in most doors that we've seen. We can now rebuild the internals and get your lock working!

We have also started making reproduction parts for the old broken plastic (bakelite) components as well.

Check our our website at www.leitmodern.com that has a small subset of what we can do, or email me at leitmodern@gmail.com with questions or specific part requests. We would love to help more people keep their original Eichler (and other MCM) features.

We are located in Orange, in Southern California, and can come out onsite locally, but I'm happy to try and support outside of SoCal as well!

by: Anonymous

HI, I never found a good source for the parts, so we ended up replacing all the doors, mainly to get double-pane glass and smooth operation. But if I had found the parts I might have just fixed the old doors!

starstarstarstarstar 		Need replacement for Arcadia old-style handset too
by: Armando in Palos Verdes

I have the exact same issue. I live in Palos Verdes CA. and also have the Arcadia sliding glass doors in the house. Let me know if you found a replacement door handle. I believe the Part # was 14987 but it has been discontinued.

Thanks!
