I am looking for some Bennett 541 or 371 doors. Will pay good money for these so I can complete a pump. Thanks for your help!

You do know that 300 series doors differ greatly from 500 series doors right? The 500's have the hinge blocks in a different location and they latch completely different from each other. The 300 doors latch with a draw bar along the door edge while the 500 doors latch with a hand operated turn latch on a center bar mounted across the door.

Just putting that out there for you so you don't buy an incorrect set of doors for the frame you have. The 300 series have tubular frames and the latch bar runs down the frame on the opposing side from the hinges. The 500 series have angle steel frames with a latch bar that runs across the front side of the frame and has a unique hand crank that turns a locking cam into a corresponding plate mounted across the center of the inner door structure.

Just be sure of which pump you have and then search for your doors. Finding spare doors is very hard. I know as I have had to find two of them and it took quite a while.

yes, I do know the difference between the 300 and 500 series. I have restored versions of both and they are VERY different on the inside. I have enough parts that I am able to make either pair of doors work for my pump.

These doors are extremely hard to find. If you give up and want to sell the rest of the pump please let me know. I could use one to build a bookcase without doors.
