Originally published here: Door latch spring fix by tato_713 - Thingiverse

A quick fix for the broken spring of the latch of a door at my parents' house. I don't know how common is this latch mechanism, but someone may find this useful. Both model were tested and works, but the second is better I think. Of course, none print of these are as good as the original leaf spring, but I think looking for this tiny original part is more frustrating than just printing this workaround.

I printed it with PETG, I don't recommend PLA; it may have the same flexibility at first, but after some time it will fatigue. ABS or Nylon may work, but I didn't test them.


I spend part of my time making these models, letting them available and free for everyone. If you want to support my work, you can contribute with me by donating to this PayPal account.
