Small screws, where can I buy them?

[Muzz]

i bought some recessed door handles to replace the plastic/painted over ones in my house. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250367959527&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

i tried b&q for screws but the smallest countersunk ones they had were 2.5 or 3mm (can't remember) which sat a bit proud of the recess for the screw head.

i reckon maybe 2mm screws would be about right, anyone know where I can get screws that small? i guess if they were aluminium it would be even better as the colour would match with the handle.

http://www.screwsline.co.uk/chrome_wood_screws_raisedhead.php may be worth a try.
No. 4 (2.74mm) raised head screws are usually appropriate. They are usually available in chrome or brass finish.

thinking about it, raised head screws would solve the problem and would probably work better.

thanks for the replies.

If the screw does'nt fit the hole then make the hole fit the screw, drill out with slightly larger bit.
