Where to get a fireplace door retaining clip

fireplacehardware

I have glass doors on my wood burning fireplace. The doors don't want to stay fully closed and I think the reason why is that the clips that hold them in have deteriorated over the years.

I've looked at the big box stores to try and find new hardware like the attached but I'm not having any luck. The way they fit is that they sit toward the top of the door. A screw goes through the clip from the inside of the door and then a brass knob acts as the nut on the outside of the door. The curved part you can see in the side profile is what is supposed to catch the top of the door frame to hold the door closed.

Does anybody know if this type of clip has a specific name or where I can order a couple?

Some of the responses got me thinking along the lines of something else I could use in place of the original.

It turns out that the Hilman clamp fasteners that are in the hardware section at some big box hardware stores are about the right size and shape and with a little bending do the job perfectly.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to help. Your responses got me thinking along the right lines to find something that would work to hold the doors close while still looking OK.
