I do have all the molds to make them out of plastic. But I want to see if I could do them out of Al then have them powercoat clear. This way the two metals would never see each other, and I the Al I am using would erode away before the SS door. I still need to figure out a way to secure to the lock cylinder. But my first challenge is to get the highly educated people at MSC to send me the correct Al and in the correct size. Then I need to machine it to fit the door, then I can work on how to keep it all in place.
