Hi, I previously posted in the wanted section but is anyone able to guide me on where can purchase Dormobile knock on trim the hardest stuff to locate appears to be on the lift up panels as it’s around 6mm
Dormobile don’t do it anymore and can’t assist, tried various places without any luck

I know this isn't a great help but you could plrobably doctor some of this tile trim to have a nice top finish and have the cut finish lower part. It's the only 6mm trim I could find and as it's plastic it's probably going to be easy to slice with a blade. Good luck. The trim for the cupboards can be found at NLAVW but it's Westfalia trim. Almost identical. Here's the link for the 6mm https://trimtraders.co.uk/tile-trim...nesis-straight-edge-pvc-tile-trimsespcon.html

Many thanks for the suggestion, it just seems crazy they don’t do it any more or nobody has any surplus kicking about 👍

Yeah I have looked high and low from every trim specialist but nothing. It's odd that every record has gone. I guess most of the original workforce at Dormy have now gone too.

The original owners of Dormobile were charged with fraud, they destroyed all records before being arrested.
The current owners only have records from the time they bought the name and designs.

Have you tried Woolies Trim?

I would say that you shouldn't give up on old trim that has gone brown, I posted a long time ago on how you can get even the worst trim 99% back using methylated spirit (the purple stuff) and wire wool. So you could get some cheap stuff that others don't want and restore it?
