Broken Patio door Lever   
Hi there,

Having moved into a new house that has rear patio doors, I've found
that
the lever that operates the locking mechanism on one side is snapped.
The lock all works (it's the kind where you shut the door, pull the
lever up and then lock it in place), but I can't use the lever to lock
the door. Taking it apart, it looks like a metal lever that sits on a
square rod that runs through the door

Any ideas where I can go to buy replacement parts like this ?

I've tried a few window/conservatory places and they all seem
completely uninterested in helping me.

Thanks,
Roy.

Probably only the manufacturer of the door. You need to look all over the 
door for a label. Otherwise maybe someone could make a part.

The description in the original post sounded a bit like the locking
mechanisn in my father-in-law's patio door - supplied by Anglian. You could
try them for starters.
