Niall Flynn Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 Hello there folks. My 2.5 strand hmi barn doors have unfortunately have gone missing. This light is a linch pin in my kit and is pretty useless without the barn doors. I just wondered if anyone had any spare ones they are willing to sell. I have searched the internet looking for them and had no luck. Any leads or suggestions of where to look would be deeply appreciated.
Tom McGrath Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 Hi Niall, what size are the barndoors? Or, measure the distance (diameter) inside the barndoor ears--we might be able to find an alternate brand for you that would work.
Niall Flynn Posted February 18, 2020 Author Posted February 18, 2020 Firstly thanks so much for your response. I have measured between the ears where the barn door slides in and fits on. I have some pictures as well. The measure ment is 40mm which is 15.748031496 Inches
Tom McGrath Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 Hi Niall, That size is not very common that I'm finding (discontinued old-style Arri, for example), but I'll keep my eyes open.

Thanks so much I have been looking all over not many around that will fit.
JD Hartman Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) Look in the tables at the back of the Harry Box book. That will tell you what other brand lights used the same size barn door and accessories. Call the bigger grip rental houses, they may have some old heads sitting around that they scavenge for parts.
