I have noticed that the screws holding the stainless steel hatch board battens (stiles?) in place have a 'special' shape. The appear to be six sided with a raised centre (which prevents an allen key from engaging. I want to re-adjust the panels holding the slider in place. Is this aftermarket or does Catalina have a tool for this? Regards Chris

Just one link of hundreds online... http://www.brycefastener.com/ Any good local industrial supply can provide you with a tool for a buck or two.

I am not sure if they have ACO hardware stores in Halifax, But here in Michigan ACO has a security/tamper proof tip set. Its a little plastic box with about 30 different tips that will fit in either an apex for a electric driver or you can also buy a hand screw driver that the tips will fit in. good luck Pat
