I need a Mills back door for a Hi Top. This was in a Mills machine as was wondering what it is and where it goes. Any pics or diagram showing such.
Thanks again in advance.

If my memory serves me right. This attaches to the escalator to control the coins that are allowed onto the track. It holds the top one there until the bottom one moves. That releases the bottom tab and it rocks and allows the next coin to enter. this is a design to help from getting too many coins piled up, jamming the unit.

I have a nice repo original back door email me for current prices and availability,

as far as the escalator part they call it a "woodpecker" it is used to keep it at one coin played at a time, so multiple coins cannot be dropped into the escalator,

thanks Dave B.

The part is the second coin hold in a Mills escalator. Often missing as these caused jams if not set properly and kept clean. Here is the complete escalator on my quarter War Eagle escalator. Flip

Thanks to everyone for the input and info. I think I'll wait on an original back door.
