cable pull switches

[yonkss]

Hi all...a little off topic but...i'm looking for a cable pull (or sometimes called rope pull) switch, used for the opening and closing of a cooler door by forklift operators. the box mounts to the celing and has a spring and a micro switch. when the rope is pulled the micro switch closes momentarily and the door opens. i have been all over the internet and cant find one. the old one is damaged beond repare and has no nameplate. please help. thanks

the ones I've seen are "limit switches"...Sq D, Cutler-Hammer- Allen bradley
lever operated with rope attached.

Or, if you want fancy:

Many people use standard industrial LIMIT switches and a cable attached to an arm with eyebolt instead of a roller arm.
