Rivet Question
Did Barth attach the basement doors, hinges and frames with 2 piece aluminum mate rivets or are they standard aluminum/aluminum pop rivets? See attached link for a description of the rivet I'm asking about. Thanks in advance.

None of the ones I have drilled out looked like that.

I replaced something over 50 rivets in the 3 years I had my Barth, about a dozen, or so, were on the basement doors. All were standard pop rivets. The originals deteriorated from galvanic corrosion.

The 'pop' rivets I've replaced were all 'closed end' rivets. Hanson carries all of them. They were alum/alum I think.
