Hatch Retro Fit Stay Kit

Upgrade Older Lewmar Hatches with Modern Stay Performance

The Lewmar Hatch Retro Fit Stay Kit is designed to bring new life to aging hatch installations by replacing worn or outdated stay components. It restores smooth, controlled opening and reliable hold-open functionality to a wide range of Lewmar hatch models, improving both convenience and onboard safety.

Smooth, Controlled Hatch Operation

With refreshed stay components, the hatch opens and holds position confidently, eliminating slipping, sagging, or sudden movement. The kit improves everyday usability, ideal for ventilation, routine deck access, and maintain a stable opening angle in changing conditions. 

Durable, Marine-Grade Replacement Components

Built from corrosion-resistant materials engineered for long-term marine exposure, the Retro Fit Stay Kit restores dependable performance even on older hatches that have seen years of sun, salt, and heavy use. Each part is manufactured to OEM Lewmar standards for reliability. 

Enhances Safety & Reduces Wear

A fully functioning stay prevents accidental slamming and reduces hinge strain, extending the life of the hatch assembly. This is especially valuable on forward hatches and companionway areas where movement and vibration are more pronounced.

Designed for Easy Retrofit Installation 

As an official Lewmar retrofit component, the kit is engineered for straightforward installation on compatible hatch models. It provides an exact-fit solution for restoring original performance without requiring a full hatch replacement.
