I am looking for a replacement for the latch release tool for an older Jotul gas insert model GI 550 DV. It slides in a narrow gap on the underside of the stove.
Also, if anyone has ever has another clever way to open the door or release the latches on this model, that info would be appreciated, too.

If you can’t find one, it doesn’t look like it’d be hard to make.
