Perfect fit, quick shipping
When I broke the shield of our KD-8000, I never thought I’d find a replacement. I followed a link from MY Weigh to Old Will Knott, and placed an order. The 2-pack arrived a few days later, and it’s a perfect fit.

I assumed that my broken cover could not be replaced because I wouldn't be able to find a replacement. Just on the off chance I could, I entered my scale model number and got to this site. Not only did they have the replacement, it came in a reasonably priced two pack. Shipment was quick. Replacement took 3 hands to keep the two pins lined up while I tapped gently to get the cover installed. If each of these last as long as the old one, it will be a long time before I need to order another. I love stumbling onto small businesses such as this that provide a valuable service at a reasonable price!

Replacement Shields for KD-7000
These fit exactly like the original! I have had my KD-7000 for a while now and the shield finally cracked at one of the hinges. These were perfect-fitting replacements, and almost seem sturdier than the original. Grateful to have found these!

Exact replacement cover for my KD-8000
MyWeigh customer service referred me here to purchase a hinged replacement cover that protects the LCD display on my KD-8000. I was pleasantly surprised to find an exact replacement at a very reasonable price and shipping cost. This was my first time ordering from Old Will Knott Scales and I found my order was processed quickly, well packaged, and received in good condition. I was also kept well informed of the order status. Thanks for the great service!

I have had my scare for about 5 years, one day I found one of the hinges had broken off.
I thought I would have to replace the whole scale. I found this company on the internet, and ordered a replacement set.
Due to COVID-19, and Christmas, it took a week to get it from Denver. It was very easy to replace it, once we got it
Thank you for having replacement parts.

Perfect Replacement Shields
When I damaged the shield on my KD-7000 scale, one of the two metal prongs that hold the shield broke off as well. I am happy to say that the replacement is holding and working well on just one prong. The shield is excellent quality, a good price, and fits perfectly.

I was hesitant about buying because of some reviews here about the shield breaking or needing to widen the hole. Did not have issues at all, fit perfectly.

First, drilling in plastic can create sharp edges that are prone to cracking. If you're going to use a drill, use one that's oversize and deburr by hand. Second, most do not have drill indexes or the need for a single use bit. Third, after a magnified inspection, the problem is a burr on the inside of the right hinge that can be removed by gently scraping with a pointed knife. Use a wet Q-tip with cleansing powder to smooth the scrape. Both covers I received had the same defect. Thanks OldWillKnott for the fast shipment.

KD7000 scale that is 10 years old needed new cover. The new cover would not go on, so per other reviews, I used a 5/32” drill bit to “clean out the holes” on the new cover. Just manually turned the bit to clear the little bit of extra plastic that was preventing the installation. Worked out great!
Reviewed by: Jennifer D from on 12/23/2019
The plastic hinge on the first one snapped as I tried to install it; the inside diameter of the hinge just wasn't large enough for the hinge pins.
The second one wouldn't fit either, so I enlarged the hole with a 5/36" drill bit. That one then went on fine.

Replacement "gunk guards" on scale adequate but flawed
Replacement LCD shields for a MyWeigh KD8000 scale were satisfactory but were flawed. In both shields, the fitments to attach them to the frame of the scale were too small to fit over the pins on the frame. On one shield, the lower right corner had cracked off, leaving a rough, jagged edge.
The main problem was fitting the shield onto the pins. This problem was mentioned by several earlier reviewers. They were right. But forcing a blade between the edges of the fitment and gently prying, I was able to expand it without breaking it, and was able to force the shield onto the pins. It squeaked when moved. I applied a light lubricant to the pins and that reduced the squeaking somewhat.
The result: serviceable replacement but the casting mold is not properly shaped.

Actually fit it better than the original cover.

Unfortunately the holes in the shield’s attachment area where not big enough. I checked against the original shield’s holes just to make sure, and it confirmed my suspicion. The new shields had smaller holes. I had to get the electric drill and carefully make the holes bigger. I got it on, but it still is tight so it makes a horrible squeaking sound when I open the shield up. I even tried to lubricate it, but the sound is still there. I fear making the holes any bigger so that the shield won’t stay up. So, I’m just going to have to deal with the abrasive creaking noise.

Great Product but a little hard to install
I would give this a 5 star if it were not for replacing the cover is rather difficult. The two tabs fit very tight and takes several tries before you are successful at getting it on both pins at the same time. Their service is great and shipping is very fast.

I am happy with these shields, (2 pack.) The one I installed works WAY better than the original.
As one reviewer observed, there may be some molding residue which needs to be removed, and that is a very simple process.
Use a 5/32 drill bit, hand held, NOTHING ELSE; just run the bit through the hinge while twisting a little to make a perfect fit.
I do believe clearing the hinge should be done by "MyWeigh," but I am just happy it is available; it is super clear, well made, (with the one exception noted hince the four star rating,) and it does protect the panel from splash etc. Worthwhile purchase!!

Replacement Shields for KD-8000 scale
I received the product I ordered in a timely manner. The shields had manufacturing defects: the pins could not be placed in the hinges, because the hinges were clogged with plastic. My wife is a jeweler and was able to ream out the hinges for me. They now work properly.

You will want to keep a couple spares of these around which really help to keep your scale looking like new. Very hard plastic that can take the abuse of oils and especially Essential and Fragrance oil spills.
