Help identifying a coin door
« on: October 10, 2013, 02:31:12 pm »
Hi All,

Can you help me identify this coin door - probably from a UK machine.

In addition, does anyone know what mech it might take?

Thanks all ...  :cheers:

Looks like a modified "Coin Controls" door.  However, it looks like it's the bottom part where the quarter bin would be accessed.

Not sure though, but thought I'd try to help.

Yea, that coin return slot does not look in the right place to me ....

That's pretty awesome- I've never seen a homemade coin door like that.

Hmmm... I'm not sure I want it to be awsome... just ordinary really...

I think I might pass on this gem...

I have a Happ Coin Door that's the same size- two mechs, fully working. But you're in the UK, right?

Afraid so - these things are sooooo expensive here, so I decided to ask around for some and this one came up.

It was only £18 delivered.

The offset angle that the coin goes in and comes out should help you find your missing parts, which are likely not a traditional arcade mech but  a roll down mech for something else.

Its a 'Mars' coin door ... this adds more expense as the mech and the mech coin controller would mean I would pay about the same as I would for something else new...
