I think I already know the answer, however if anyone out there knows where I can find a five part habitation door hinge for my 2006 Compass Avantgarde 140. The second bottom section has snapped. I've been searching but not having any luck, I did read maybe trying a Smithy to make one which could be an option, I just ordered a 3 part one and hope to use the middle section, it's all I can think of. The repair company I use can't find the correct part either, so any help or advice would be great. Thanks

I am guessing that the hinge is the type referred to in this discussion on another forum

A possible supplier is mentioned in the final posting (10 May 2019 4:20 PM) and also here

but, as you’ve ordered a 3-section hinge that you hope to cannibalise, that may prove to be the best way forward.

Anyone looking for this obsolete hinge, Ive just bought one from a guy who makes them and have to say, its as good as the original if not better billsunhinged59@outlook.com
It's a five year old thread so I guess the OP has sorted it by now, but I recall on a MH forum seeing a picture of a hinge made by bills unhinged etc and I thought then what a god quality item had been made. useful to have such contacts.
I did see that Clive but thanks for pointing out
I thought Id reply anyway as I found this forum due to searching for the said hinge
