I have a 1985 Beneteau idylle 10.50.
Many of the other Beneteaus use the same lock.
I need to replace this lock on the companionway door.
I found it in the BeneteauUSA site, out of stock, and $195.20 Ouch!
I believe it's made by Perko. It's 2 5/8" x 2 1/4" x 5/8"
The Beneteau order number is 082551
The tumbler has a number 469 on it.
My boat... as you can see from this blog...... has a thick lexan hatch that slides over the main cabin. This dead bolt feeds up into the hatch to be secure. There are many similar locks but the deadbolts are thin & weak.
"ANY SUGGESTIONS?"
email me........ captbanyan@cfl.rr.com put the word Beneteau in the description so I don't delete it.
NOTICE!
A similar lock was about $300 from Beneteau and had to located by phone. I found a black plastic (with hard metal hardware) lock on eBay for $40 that works perfect with the heavy Plexiglas hatch. Thanks to those of you who sent me information.
